This is a 1941--I think--Road Master 26" boys bike... It still needs a lot of work. I painted up many years ago to match the paint scheme on a girls Road Master I did for my wife. Most of the chrome is shot but it still looks pretty cool... It's just wearing it's age a bit! ...lol...But then, so am I.

Thanks guys...
I have a 1940(?)Roadmaster three fin. This has working front and rear lights and built in horn. Rides fine. I'm trying to find out what it's worth, and if I should restore it or not. Any thoughts?
Pete, You should sign up here and post pictures. Not only would you get answers to your questions, you'd be doing other collectors a service. We all love looking at other peoples junk! Or should I say stuff... Junk has a slightly different connotation these days...LOL...
This is such a nice bike, it needed to be back on top for awhile.
Thanks again Von!!
