Winter restoration project. Hoping to do somthing custom, remove rust get powder coated, matching wheels, some sort of 3spd or 7 spd hub Sturmey Archer or Shimano which is better? Looking for handle bar grips old style, Not sure what breaks to put on it. Would like a compatible vintage lugage wrack. Looking for an L seat post bracket to extend seat back. Would like to also find a A frame rear kickstand the kind that has a spring tab latch on the rear fender these were common in the 1930's and can be found on 1940's era bikes also. Is there a better place for parts than Ebay? Via Bicycles in Philidelphia, PA had the most impresive retail "musuem" of bikes I have seen.
Thanks for your interest.
