Love Condor very impressive collection, out of interest do you have any bigger frames? I wonder if Condor would be interested in one of these for their collection in the shop. Also does your WBH fastback have a curved chain stay bridge? I ask this as I have an early 70 fastback Condor with a...

My early 70’s Condor ✌️

Nice frame! I know VE built Condors have a V at the start of the serial number but did VE do this on all the frames he built? GLWS.

Thanks will do!

This recently sold in the UK 👍

Thanks! I’ve had a bit of an issue trying to preserve the original paint, was tempted to strip it all and fully repaint as the previous owner striped the down tube and I presume the original decals with it (don’t know why). My attempt to match the original paint is better than before but still...

Images from my 1968 Condor frame with H painted on seat stay eyes so I’m happy enough to believe it’s by WBH. I’m sure I have this size hole on the chain stay bridge an early 70s condor. Any other reason beside WBH secret makers mark for this hole to exist?

My early 70’s Condor Italia also has the serial number stamped on the dropouts, no V but I have seen examples of Vic Edwards Condors from the early 70’s online. Oddly on mine rear dropouts are Zeus and front campag but serial numbers match on the steerer tube, not sure if it was common to mix...

Lovely and my size, if you decide to pass please let me know sellers details, presume if it was by WBH it would have a H painted on the seat stay eyes and if it was by Vic Edwards a V would be at the start of the serial number?

brilliant photo!

This Condor 653 has just been listed on eBay, might give you some inspiration for the respray. I personally really like the lairy paint scheme...
