I picked up a bike for my wife originally and the guy had a Firestone frame and fork that I fell in love with. So forty dollars poorer in my wallet and I came home with a 53 Schwinn for my wife and a hacked up Firestone frame. For some reason the previous owner of the Firestone cut the right side chainstay to get the chain off.
So I sparked up my trusty MIG and got her back in business.
The Firestone Challenger board track racer(if anyone knows a general idea of when I was made chime in please) It's a hodge podge of Schwinn stuff like the grips, bars, stem, fork truss rods, wheels I picked up at a local swap meet. It's ridden everyday hauling my son around in our trailer. I'm looking for more of a flat cresent moon shaped handlebar to ditch the flipped over Schwinn women's bar that are on it now. I actually won "Wildest Custom Creation" at a local antique show last month. I was pretty surprised to say the least.
