Got this in the mail today. It's a Bonite, Time Warp (clock), Welinder Street Style I. I think it's a rare color, y'all would know better than I, it's a metallic gold. Don't know if it would be considered NOS, because of the hole drilled for the clock. It has a few scuffs topside And a light 3" scratch on the bottom, on the left helmet horn.

Let me know what you think.
Cheers
JD

Hi sticks...... ........Can we see a close up or an angle that shows the metallic paint? Ive seen other white welinders that have mis colored like that one. The white square on the top is the area that was covered by the clock guts, i would assume if it was intended to be one color it would be the same under the clock works. Not a bad deal either way. OOO

I thought it was a faded white bonite when I bid on it.

Weird that the edges are not coated? Or is it just really thin?

This is like the reverse McGill all over again!!!!!!!!

Which is great

i always hate it when people say it's worth what you paid, but dude, you won that on ebay a week ago. it's worth the $130 some odd dollars you paid.

Cool. I'd like to see some better pics, I've never seen a gold bonite before. Why do you think the square where the clock was is a different color? Do you think the deck was painted when the clock was on it?
