Someone should turn that into a bike
You got the 1920's part right, I believe. Once the frame is revealed in full, next Wednesday, you will see the subtle differences from this one ^^ and mine.
Clue #5. Something in the 'rear view mirror'...

Stainless or aluminum fenders?
BTW, I like that filter that you're using. That would make some great looking posters if the car in the background was removed.
@The Renaissance Man , the filter is an 'overlay' on my Kindle Fire called "Vintage".
Not sure on the fenders. I'll run a test once I start working it on Wednesday.

I do see the difference in the fender braces but I'm not familiar enough with that era of bicycles to tell exactly what I'm looking at. It's a fun exercise trying to figure it out though!
Here is some Canadian inspiration I just saw on FB.
1937 CCM Flyte in Montreal

I know that bike lives not far from me that's the full model the one I have is the model 8 it was the economy model without the curved fork I long for one but 2000 bucks even here. Crazy rare. The frames had issues in the loop tail
Here is some cool inspiration for the anything goes class. FB find from Albert Luce of Ontario, Canada

Have something I’d like to participate with. Kind of a re-do but was never finished properly and would like to take it in a different direction.
Some of you regulars might recognize it. This is what I would be starting with.
Would be the only option for me as funds are tight but did order some new shifters so something will happen with it.

As long as you start over from the beginning I have no problem with this. The admins have the final say as usual tho
Ya might be better to just do a build thread.
I took the trike for a short, pre-work commencement ride this morning - man is it scary! Gonna be awesome.

To me, "never finished properly, ...take it in a different direction" equals a new build. You're good to enter it
