    Lovely work here. I just bought a '51 to restore myself but it's a little worse for wear than your one was. The design of these bicycles are magical, so elegant

    Fantastic job, love the way you have retained the original paint finish.
  • Oh I love those handlebars!!!! Awesome and sweet bike and restoration!!
  • That poor thing still needs a ton of TLC (Truck Loads Of Cash) to be 100% again. It's all original but when the condition is this bad that doesn't matter any more as it doesn't have the same desirability as it once did. Condition is everything to collectors but if this was just a daily driver type bike then most people probably wouldn't care. At least this got some love and is all in one piece again. It's too bad that the paint can't be fixed to the original colour but it is what time and wear and tear have made it. This is a true survivor. Thank you for sharing this with us.

    What a beautiful machine. I loved that you kept so much of it original, a new coat of paint will be necessary eventually but to see it so close to its original glory is wonderful. Thanks for posting!
