Next to one old bike is the other old bike.  Sweet (needed better light, dammit).

Nice pic! I thought the light was fine.

You should see it when the bikes are out the way and the dancers... oh... nevermind.... I was thinking of the other pole he has in the garage/shop.

Hmmmmm, there is a corner with not much in it.....

Don, that old air hose counter hanging on the wall....is that authentic or a replica?  Looks so good as if if might be 'functionable'   Remember when all the stations had those w/ free air not that long ago it seems.  spyder

Those were neat items and it looks like Don's works...is that a hard pipe going up the wall next to it with a ball valve?

Didn't most of those things have a little crank on the side to set the pressure to the deisired lbs and then it would "ding" while you put air in the tire?

I have Garage Envy...

TC, you had one thing Don doesn't have, his own police officer outside your garage.

That old airmeter is functional Spyder.  Even still has the original paper roll with models and their associated tire pressures listed.  So I can find out what air pressure a Hupmobile would have needed any time I want to!

I don't have air plumbed to the unit though.  Can always hook it up quickly via coupler just to play around.  But the big compressor in the shop is plumbed all over the building and on both sides.  It's the only supply source and I keep its regulator set higher than I want pressure against the old airmeter internals.  

The old airmeter does have an internal regulator for output as TC described.  I even fixed the light light inside to backlight the face.  But it's still an old piece and I'd not want to blow its guts out with high pressure.

That's one thing I can do without...forever.

I remember those well.....had one at the corner service station with the dinging bell and all.......shouldn't known yours was fully functional.  Too cool for school.  har.  spyder

Its such a long bike (and a beautiful bike).  Is it tough to maneuver at slow speeds?  I would love to hear your impressions of it once you've had a chance to ride it.
