Girard - if you were expecting Schultz's book to be a
wealth of information to help with your De Luxe projects
I think you'd be sorely disappointed in it. It's primarily
a treatise on the Detroit built bikes, with each year of
production garnering it's own chapter. The De Luxe and KJ,
ho produced for nearly a decade combined, are not covered
in any great detail and a single chapter covers them both.
Each warrants a couple pages of written text and a half
dozen or so pages of reproduced pictures from brochures or
period magazines. That's it.
If you're a die hard Henderson fan, Schultz's book is a
must have. But for detailed De Luxe (and KJ) information
you need to look elsewhere ... Perry
----- ORIGINAL MESSAGE FOLLOWS -----
Someone out there must be sick and tired of reading
their copy of Richard Schultz's book for the millionth
time ?? Or maybe you have 2 or 3 copies you are hoarding
for reasons you have now forgotten ??
Anyway, I have called Mr. Schultz, have scoured all of
the internet, and have even come accross the copy
being sold for $178.00 in Stillwater, Minnesota. This book
is really and truly sold out and out of print. Does
anyone have a lead on where I might score one of these
Henderson Unobtainiums ?? I am willing to pay a price that
is fitting for such a rare and sought-after book.
Meanwhile, I am still looking for anything and everything
Deluxe: I basically have 2 fairly complete motors, a '22
and a '25.
Would be interested in anything being offered for sale to
aid
in this gigantic set of parallel projects.
Thank You Very Much,
Sincerely,
Girard Fox
