I have been able to to obtain pair of wood rims and rebuilding the wheels is the main part of the project since the bike is otherwise in pretty good condition.

Questions:1) What is the historically accurate spoke lacing pattern for front and rear wheels for the bke's era (1930's)
2) Source for repairing the seat - I do not intend to ride the bike, but would like to display it, so the repair would be mostly cosmetic.

Thanks for any help

Dave
I don’t have answers to your questions but I hope you post pictures. I’d love to see what this is all about.
