Hi Carl,

Looks to be mid-1920s OB. The frame number is on the rhs of the saddle lug - on the flat part, and should be HFxxx.

Cheers

Great looking OB project Carl!.

This OB frame is in need of some slight buffing of the spots of rust as well :-). In actual fact tho', it is much worse than it looks !

cheers
