My Hobbs of Barbican project. Rescued from the metal recycler for $0.40/lb, dates to the 30s I guess and that's all I know.
I found out about this guy by seeing a truck full of scrap metal and some bike frames driving down a back road one afternoon. Did a U-turn and followed him to his yard, where I found, all ready for the crusher:
-WWII german folding paratrooper bike
- Raleigh Twenty
- Two old Moultons
and some other stuff. I promised to come back and take them all off his hands, but when I went back he was closed. I guess they went to the crusher.
