Thought I'd give my trusty old American a makeover before spring and discovered that while it was apart getting new paint, new motor, gas tank and lights I have lost the front fork upper bearing cup. The bike is a 63 Schwinn American Deluxe, but I would guess that the upper cup from any 1960's middleweight would work. The lower cup is larger and can't be swapped. I've taken apart a couple of 3 speed Huffys to see if the bearing cup from them would work, but no go. No bike shops in my area and no upper bearing cup on eBay. Do any of you have the cup I need and are willing to part with it? Photos below show what I'm talking about. It's close to being ready to ride with addition of chains, plug wire and that missing cup.
