Yea when I see it I was shocked proper old Skool. My dad said its from about 1950s. Built like a brick sh1t house.
Made like toys used to be metal and wood no plastic in sight.

Found this the other day proper retro. Going to fix it up and use it for show season.



Check out the cool braking system.

Why bother even fixing It up? it would seem at some shows rusty and neglected=much appreciation and kudo,I don't get it personally so on the other hand fix it up!

I'm not going to do it up like that in going to keep the patina of it just things like the front wheel has a bolt missing and the rear wheel is a bit stiff. The handle bars are loose just make it rideable.
Cheers dude was hard to fit as it was soo heavy but defiantly worth it with the heat it gives off.

There's a skip where my unit is. I walk past it on the way to the toilets, so always look inside. To date, I have saved/rescued/pikey'd/salvaged, a brand new electric consumer unit with rcb's, two unused rolls of twin & earth cable, countless stack n store boxes, a near new one-man tow A frame, old bmxs, a vintage/retro picnic hamper, and some dexion shelving.
I can't believe some of the stuff people throw away!
