    EBAY Bid Fell Through

    Just got a message from EBAY and one from Pay-Pal that I will be getting a refund. The seller did send me a message saying that he had been out of town and didn't know of my issue with the refund...Unh ? Maybe so ? He has received a couple more negative ratings since then. If someone has items...

    EBAY Bid Fell Through

    EBAY Bid Fell Through

    Last month I won a bid for a Schwinn (branded with "Excelsior") straight bar tank for my 1950 D19. A couple of days later the seller tells me that his pay-pal account is messed up and that he will refund my money. So he wouldn't be able to ship it to me and instead encouraged me to pick it up...

    Western Flyer Muscle Bike...Something ?

    Thanks Mark. I'm just curious about the orange color that this bike has. I have done some checking and can't seem to find anything yet. You have a great looking bike there.

    Western Flyer Muscle Bike...Something ?

    Have the idea of maybe doing a "Rat Fink" theme for this bike ? I could still use the yellow seat and grips. Maybe a bright green paint job with "Rat Fink" decals ? Yellow chainguard since it has already been painted ? Just considering it...?

    Western Flyer Muscle Bike...Something ?

    Picked up this W.F. from a dealer on ebay. It is advertised as a W.F. Wrangler bicycle. It has been painted a couple of times. I'm wondering if a clothing store at one time used this bike as store display to help sell Wrangler Jeans ? The stenciling on the chainguard is very good but chrome tape...

    Naval Jelly Magic on 52 Hornet / 42 Roadmaster

    Great looking bike. I'm in the process of removing rust from this bike that I got a couple of weeks ago. I'm using a product called "Metal Rescue" it has no acids and it is safe to use. It's working pretty good so far.

    1967 Huffy Cheater Slick

    Great looking ole Muscle bike. I have a 67 like that one that I purchased from a friend on Muscle Bike Forum. I plan to recreate my first bike with it. I had a 68 or 69 Deluxe Dragster. Red with a black/white seat. I'm still needing some parts (seat,chainguard and pedals) I still have the...

    its a huffy

    That should be a fun project. With the original "Holiday" stickers/decals on there, I would be tempted to just smooth it down and spray a clear coat on it. Just add new chain,seat and tires. Cool bike !
