I'm in Hog Heaven as us Arkies say, lol. I am attaching a Pic of Her. Her name is Bell Starr. Model 121, issued in 1908. I think I have this right. I just wish I could find a spoked wheel for my Red Eye now. Then I could think about putting Her back to treadle. Well here She is, if I have any info wrong here please correct me, Joy
She's a pretty girl. Congratualtions. I can see why you are in Hog Heaven. My mother always said that but she was from Kentucky. I think you did a good job on cleaning her up.
