There is absolutely nothing about this that could be considered ugly!!!!!!
 
More pictures on my website, Thanks for looking! :D
 
I'd shop there, congratulations on doing such a great job. That is truly remarkable and impressive! Thanks for sharing that with us!

That was a nice set up! Very cool stuff there! The last post on that was 3 years ago though.

A couple of those items have found there way into other collections, I happen to have the Huffy Steering Wheel in the box in those pictures. I dig it!
 
That parachute-toolbox doohickey in the yellow box is a great accessory, and hard to find. If one pops up for sale make sure your paypal account is fully stocked.
 
Those are cool accessories. The Drag Chute Tool Box was made by a guy on the Schwinn Forum, around the 1990's, back when Schwinn supported a collectors forum on it's website. His nickname there was Papa Wheelie, that is why they have that name.

I think that item in the pictures was just the box for the accessory, it was empty. He sold that eBay about a month ago:

Really, I didn't realize it was that new. I did see that auction, I watched it until the end.
 
All the same, I'd like to get one someday. I just thought it looked cool even if it is newer.

A friend of mine has a 70's living room too. All original from the 70's, red & white plastic furniture and a couple of chairs shaped like an egg with built in speakers as well as an white 8-track player hanging from a chain. He even has a red TV from the 70's, it's cool looking. I don't know what you'd call that style, maybe futuristic modern contemporary.
