    LowRatter- Patina Build

    Here's my latest. I got this from a friend who had owned it since the early '80's. Six years ago he started fixing it up for his nephew. They blew it apart, painted it, mocked up the front end and wheels... and then put it out in an old tin barn, that, fortunately :D LEAKED! That's where it sat...

    A(Surprise) Bike For My Wife

    In the late seventies my wife had a bike that had been handed down to her form her older sister. It was a lavender girls bike with a tall sissy bar and a sparkly purple seat. She thinks her dad fixed it up for them and had repainted it. So, I've decided to re-create the bike for her. Here's the...

    No Lowrider....Want suggestions!

    I bought this 1961, 24" Skipper last year for 40 bucks. I started ordering parts and digging through my parts heap last week. I'm not sure which direction to go with it. I just know I don't want it to look like a Low Rider. I won't be painting it and I'm probably stuck with the tires for the...

    1968 Huffy Camaro Value?

    I've found an original green '68 Huffy Camaro in very good condition. The seller isn't sure of the value and neither am I. What would be a fair price?

    Schwinn Skipper

    I picked this up today. It needs wheels, but otherwise is in pretty nice shape. I'm not sure on the year. Serial H133970.

    Big Twin-FINISHED-Videos

    I'm building this for a buildoff at MBF. It's a 26" Texas Ranger, like alot of my bikes, this one was rescued from the trash. I'll be using it to pull my bike trailer (soon to be built) for parades and shows. The headset tube broke away from the top bar and the bottom bar is bent. Donor...

    Abandoned or Art?

    I took this while on a trip to see my daughter perform with the National Honor Choir, at Carnegie Hall in NYC, 2009. I've always wondered if it was intended to be art? :wink:

    50's Hawthorne? And a couple more....

    I'm guessing this was probably manufactured in the mid-to-late fifty's? Can anyone narrow it down? And what would this one be? This one's a July, 1952 Schwinn, needs a little TLC. I picked these up for $40 today. They should all be good projects or parts bikes. Thanks :wink:

    RRBMX

    I bought this bike at a thrift shop about a year ago. It's a 1982 Diamondback Silver Streak. It looks like it was used as a commuter for awhile. I rebuilt it and gave it to my late friends son, who was having trouble keeping a bike on the road. His dad ( My Friend) passed away when his son was...

    Touch of Trash - Finished!!!

    I recently bought a frame from a guy at a garage sale, his son was going to build a low rider bike and had cut the frame. The shame is it's a '67. So I decided I might as well build a chopper. I'm not sure which way to go with the front end. I'm was thinking board track-ish, not sure now! I...

    '67 Schwinn Headset

    This has probably been beat to death, so I'm sorry if this is a question that is tiring.I tried a forum search with no luck. I'm trying to determine what forks I'll need for my '67 Stingray frame. It seems there are alot of options when it comes to Schwinn forks. Is there a standard guide for...
