Here are some pics of my 37-38 Roadmaster Cycle Truck built by The Cleveland Welding Co. This bike was found abandoned and left for dead on a farm in western KS. Every moving part was rusted solid and had to be heated for disassembly. The large basket was smashed and not useable but I got lucky and found a similar one at a farm auction. I have reconditioned the bike and can now ride it. I chose to leave the original rusted patina as I think it fits the bike and looks pretty good. The bike draws a lot of attention when I have it out as most people have never seen one before. Bikes like this were used by grocery stores, hardware stores and auto parts stores for home delivery. I am still missing the front stand and plan to recover the seat. This is my first time trying to post pics so I hope it works out...

Me too!

But I'll have to move to the midwest where all these great bikes fall out of trees.
 
Sweet. I think you made the right decision leaving the original patina. Looks like a display piece. Awesome.
