As I mentioned in a previous post, it was a pleasure doing a deal with a fellow forum member Jim aka yellowhat from Wisconsin. I finally got my Aerospace Sport which pretty much gets me the entire lineup. Just missing the steel wheeled Gran Prix which should not be confused with the GP's. The bike was already in good shape having been tuned up with new brake pads, cables and tires. I just added the black cloth bar tape, toe straps, and a new decal set. A little wax and here she is. Still not sure on the saddle choice, but this one was laying around and matched up colorwise. Back in 2009, when I rescued my old Gran Touring, I never thought I'd end up with almost the entire lineup of mid 70's Aerospace Viscount. Very addictive! fullsizeoutput_4bf by [url=https:// DSCN1108 by [url=https:// fullsizeoutput_4b9 by [url=https://

Looks very nice and congrats on the collection. Evidently there is therapy for this according to my wife, she constantly tells me about my bikes to which I remind her about her shoes and handbags that not only outnumber my bike collection that keep me fit and are amazingly appreciating in value but cost considerably less and don’t seem to go out of fashion and need replacing each year.....🤗

That's a beauty!
So Micheal, you are pretty much done now then? Nothing can tempt you?

That's a beauty! So Micheal, you are pretty much done now then? Nothing can tempt you? Thanks for the kind words boys! Jem, I'm way too easily tempted to say that's it. Think about those alternate colors, and potential near NOS basement queens waiting to come out of hiding! And then there's alway parts, advertising, etc. I'd consider this just a milestone to be surpassed with something even more spectacular down the Viscount road. Oh, I think I need professional help!!!
