46 bullnecks and serial #'s

[shinedogg]

Who knows around when the bullneck came out as far as serial #'s go. Palmer's book doesn't say, just mid 46.

Thanks Iron

I spoke with Bruce today. He says the frame change occured after the 1945 company strike. Your 3XXX number would have the Full Bullneck frame.

Thank you Chris. Have you or any other judges seen the castings and/or frames from the guy in Australia? If so, how correct are they? Would you get the points deduction for using them?

A reproduction frame that can be dected by a judge is not allowed. Race Frames makes a very nice frame. Some judges may not notice.

Thanks again Chris. I'm looking for an original frame, and I'll keep looking. It would be nice to be able to hit a meet or two. I'll have to get the dog sled team together.
