Wanted: 1920s - 1940s Bicycle

[Ndeipi]

I'm looking for:

Year: 1920-1940
Type: Racer / Town bike / Upright (most bikes considered)
Size: For rider 5ft 10in
Colour: Black/Silver/Grey/Blue/Brown (order of preference)
Drivechain: SS or 3 speed hub gears
Brakes: Coaster if possible (the fewer cables the better)
Saddle: Brooks or similar
Mudguards: None
Budget: £50-300 unrestored, or up to £800 if fully restored

I'm looking for something with a very simple aesthetic, and which screams "vintage 20s/30s". Original parts & paint much preferred.

The attached image is for inspiration.

Raid your sheds! I can buy and collect the bike in July. Thanks.

I have a couple of things which may fit the bill - more if your cut-off point is 1950. Email me for info and photos.

I'm moving on my late 30s BSA if you're interested? It's in deliberately un-restored 'oily rag' condition on the outside but mechanically very good and very nice to ride. Drop me a p.m. if it's what you're looking for - I'm near Heathrow.

Thank you Maynard, I've emailed you.

Jonny that looks very near what I'm after. I've gone through the thread, nice work. Can you please PM me with an idea of price?
