Here's a little teasing, This is what I am starting with a '58 Schwinn American found in the bottom of a scrap bin at the local yard. Rusty, Crusty, and clinging to life.
Yeah the frame is straight, the back wheel was toasted and it was missing some parts, but I think it's going to be a great build. The paint cleaned up surprisingly well.yoothgeye said:I think the angle of the picture and the mangled rear wheel are throwing my eye off. Is the frame straight?

I get the 'American' part, but I'm missing the 'Woman' reference... :?:
Cheers,

Good luck and have fun!
In a crazy sort of way.Dr. Tankenstein said:It's all making sense now!
outskirtscustoms said:Okay the suspense has built enough, :mrgreen: the woman reference is the tank! a Women's Hiawatha tank flipped upside down. Looks great too.
