Donald Duck Bicycle (Shelby, 1949)....

Description

Donald Duck Bicycle (Shelby, 1949). Here's a special treat -- a 1949 Shelby Donald Duck bicycle! This superb model was acquired without rust damage, and very little wear, and had its original handlebar tassels. The bicycle was taken apart, each piece was stripped down to bare metal, and then expertly primed and repainted to its exact 1949 specifications by a high-end bicycle shop in Ashland, Oregon. The metal Donald Duck head ornament at the front makes this two-wheeler unique among vintage bicycles, and would certainly turn heads, if seen on the street! Wak! Wak! A deluxe custom wood box for sturdy shipment has been built for this character bicycle and is included with the winning bid.
