Dale, Not sure of the model, but I've a 1937 BSA, complete and unrestored with original billing coming in from the East Coast soon. Got it from Tim Gunn a few years back at Copake. I'll get pics to the group when it arrives. Mine was well used, but not abused, and just needs a complete cleaning etc.

After looking more closely, I was? amazed at that bike ... It was so very original in most of the important ways. Paint & nickel plate in great condition, cool little Reynolds sticker ... Really well worth the selling price IMHO.

Hey Bob, I am curious about this bike as well. I was going to bid at the end but the price jumped past my pockets... I second the motion for some conversation from those more knowledgeable about bikes from this era.... It sure is a way cool bike!!
