This build is coming a long nicely. Thumbs up!

Nice work, I will be attempting to do some wheel work soon and am dreading and avoiding it....

Welcome!

Thank you Both! I didn't even consider that option. I'm glad i asked the question on this forum before i took a dremmel to it! Thanks again!!!

Picked up a 60's Columbia for my wife And got me a straight bar 51 CWC frame... Not sure what to do with it yet, I will have time to think about it as my wife is anxious to get some cruising in with this nice weather.

need to get this done so i can get back to my other projects... Although i really like this frame its got double top step thru bars that continue threw the center post && i can fit a gas tank i got off a JC Higgins so. this will be fun.

Doing a restore for my wife (1960 Columbia step thru). The head badge has the rivet type that u can't un screw. What is best way to remove with out damaging the badge. That raises another question. When re-installing how do u put it back on??? Im a noob! Any suggestions??? Please help.

Thank you.

Wow! what a find, good score! barn finds are sweet. :D

Thanks! If you can tell me the exact year that would be great!!!

33 yrs. as of yesterday! Live to ride, ride to live!

Thanks for the advice SlowPed, I appriciate it much! After looking at the serial # closer there seems to be a "AC" or "A3" after the "f28640". I will keep investigating. cheers, -Cliff

Nice bike & VW!!!

Thank you for your help! How did you get your bike ID'ed? Is there a CWC database out there? I looked online but no luck. Thanks again- Cliff

Picked up a bike from a buddy last weekend, not sure what it is. No head badge, serial # is partially there. He said he believed it to be a Cleveland Welding Co. bike. Can anyone confirm or shed some light??? thanks.
