Well I have been bitten well and truly by the resto bug after doing my first one, a Speedwell Rover seen here http://www.bicycles.net.au/forums/viewtopic.php?f=23&t=45479 No where as good as some of the bikes I see done by the members here but I've done a Ladies Speedwell to match the Rover, another Men's Speedwell, I just finished a 50s Ladies Speedwell and I am starting on a MS 2 Star Ladies. I did say I was bitten by the bug.
In the process of finding bits and pieces I spotted an old 26in Tom Wallace Special on Fleabay. It was identical to the one I had as a young bloke growing up in Brisbane. Dad purchased it from Tom Wallace on Lutwyche Road, Lutwyche if my memory serves me right. So I just had to buy it, although it was in Brisbane. My son picked it up and I'll bring it back to Sydney after Christmas. In the mean time I contacted Idrcycles here to see if I could source a set of decals from him and he pointed out that the seat tube decal is not the same as the ones he's seen before. So any input from the subject matter experts on here would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Cheers,
Ken
