Tom, I think your right. The frame appears to have sustained frontal impact. Coo l bike with some interesting parts on it. The hubs have surface rust which indicates to me that it hasn't been used for quite some time. A frame jack should be able to repair it adequately, except it will need a paint job, or
   at least some touch up. I like Witcombs, which is a good thing because I have four of them-all Brit ish, though. Robert St.Cyr Davis, Ca.
