[QUOTE="davidd, post: 169054, member: 1177"] The blue color was reported as "Carlton blue" by the press. Egli owner Bill Frauenpiese owned the bike in the 60s. He allowed me to scan the photo above. Carlton blue was used by Auburn as a model color in the 1930s. Pat Manning has a blue brake plate he picked up over the years. Others have reported finding blue chassis parts. I believe a small motorcycle shop ended up with the bike. It was on a test ride and involved in an accident that resulted in a death. the bike was disassembled and sold in pieces by the shop owner.
