I'm going to put the headset in a place of high honor on my new forthcoming Nobilette Roadeo. In honor of Charlie I'm going to execute two maker projects:
1. I'm going to make a little plastic shadowbox to display the postcard of Jacquie and Charlie, along with the autographed headset box. I'll hang that on my wall. 2. But wait, Bill, your new Roadeo is going to be 1" threadless! Yup! In my community college machine shop class, I'm going to convert this threaded headset into a threadless headset. How the heck are you gonna pull of that craziness?!?! Wait and see!
