hey all,
i don't know what a rat rod bike is: (and from the forum rules i read, you're not s'posed to tell me) but i know what i like. and when i find a photo of what i like on the internet it usually points me here. i've spent plenty of time in the traditional hot rod and custom world so the term "ratrod" means something to me, but i have a feeling that it means something different here.
i have a 1965 schwinn typhoon (stock and original), a 196? storeliner (atkins maybe) sabre flight (stock with ape hangers), a 1967 hercules 3 speed (stock original), a 1969 schwinn bantam (basket case), and parts of two other bikes (neither old).
here's the typhoon:
and the sabre flite (right after i purchased it):
and as it is now:
and the hercules:
