I like the reverse color scheme on the Schwinn in picture.

Re: Post War Rollfast

Looks like you made out in the front suspension department :shock: Nice Rollfast too !!!

Re: Post War Rollfast

Yeah, I picked up a few things. I sure could use the other half of this tank. I don't know if it is correct, but it'll fit if I can straighten out some warping. viewtopic.php?f=34&t=76677

Re: Post War Rollfast

I also got this way wide Dyno Handlebar set and these NOS Olive Drab Drop Center Rims. The Spoke Holes are huge. Somewhere around 3/16 to 1/4 inch. I'll have to Mic. them after work tonight to find the exact size. The handlebars are 32 inches measured from tip to tip on the outside. They'll be great for a custom Wide & Long build.

The Schwinn or the ShockEase?

I like that blue fork.

So I guess you have at least 4 shock-ease forks now (although 1 that I see is a partial). Someone is putting replacement bolt, spring and cushion kits on the bay. Nice haul!

Found any numbers on your Shelby Hiawatha yet?

 

[Sphinx]

Two of the Shock-Ease forks are partial. I have not looked on the Girls bike for the serial number. I'll try to take care of that this weekend. It has been a busy last couple of weeks. I saw those spring kits on Ebay, but have not even read the Auction content. One of the Partial Forks has the Boys size neck, so I was quite happy that I may not have to perform any neck surgery.

I wish I could find a bag of these. Absolutely KILLER !

Bump ! I need a tank for this Rollfast. I'm told a Hawthorn Tank would work as well. The other side of this tank would work as well.

I see you got the one from the FS section. Great score. Cant wait to see it complete.

 

[Sphinx]

No, he sold it to someone else. I made an offer, but it wasn't good enough. You are talking about the tank, right?

Yeah, I guess he could've let me give another offer, but......., now, it's water under the bridge.

I have this coming from a guy on "The Cabe" for the Rollfast.

So. you building a military bike with the rims? What's the scoop on the green grips? I wouldn't mind finding a bag of those too.
