Nice find! It is a 1955 Simplex Automatic. Do you have all the major parts for it, like the front end, engine and transmission?
Post some more pictures of whatever else you have. If you have the engine, the number will be on thew side and start with the letter "M".

Good eye and that's a fine prize to come across. :)

its a few hour job to organize it however it went under discussion and before building the simplex were building the harley first so this bike will be on the backburner for a month or two

LOL .
I said the same thing over 6 years ago when my brother in law was going to give a CB750 away . Life happens and I'm just now getting back to the Simplex .
See you in about ten years . Harleys are much worse to work on than Hondas . ;)
