Late response as I lost the password and had to lay off biking for a while.
I want to say Thank You to everyone on for their help.
The CocaCola bike got painted by my friend (I objected but they are his).
The blue Falcon was renovated and sold.
The red Carlton had frame alignment problem, and the cottered cranks was just too much for me. donated to local bike charity.
Thanks again and see you soon.

Please help me to identify my Carlton decal.
Hello everyone, I am a new member and a new bicycles enthusiast in general, glad to join the club.
I recently bought 3 old frames, the first, 1960's Carlton, came with semi peeled decal on top of the seat tube. I could not recognized it and no reassembled decals appear on Google search. So my questions are:
1. What is this decal?
2. Can you help me to identify if the Carlton frame is 531?
3. What is story of the 531c CocaCola frame?
4. Do you advise me to use car metallic paint (blue and orange) for touch ups on the Carlton and the Harrier?
Many Thanks.
