here's a few pics of my 60 galaxie and my schwinn speedester. i think i need to paint one to match the other, any input? i know what would be easier. lol our pit at greaserama 2013: the speedster:

just traded off this green schwinn for some early 90's technics tower speakers. omg. i forgot what it was like to hear music the way it was meant to be heard. still, it kinda hurt to see the bike go. he is a friend though, so it's not that bad.

i picked up a couple of middleweights the other day. i guess i'll dump any and all progress pics in here. black 63 speedster: it currently has the original s5's on it and i'm wondering if an s7 will fit one of these "camelback" style frames. red 60? panter II: spent about ten...

freebie. found it down the street with an extra wheelset. aired up the tires and rode it around. everything works. shimano 21 speed shifts good. i was going to part it, but i think my oldest son is interested in it. crappy pic:

anyone know what the original reflector would have looked like on my monark? and are they available anywhere? also, i need a lens and bezel (i assume they are separate) for my headlight. is it a delta martin? i think that's what i read. i dunno. i am still learning. any help would be appreciated.

when it rains it pours. last fall i had one wm cruiser. now, i have that, a 62 middleweight project, a monark, collegiate, and coast king. i bought the collegiate and the coast king off a scrapper for 11$ in hopes of salvaging some useable parts, and i bought the monark because it looks cool...

just picked this up today and have no idea what year it might be. the seller wasn't sure either. i tried looking for serial numbers on the web with no luck. it appears to be pretty original, but i am still a rookie. thanks for any help. serial no. 1H763129

i keep hearing everyone say (type) that all newer 26 cruiser wheels will fit, but i tried to put the wheels off my huffy cranebrook on my 62 middleweight frame and forks and the axle shafts were a bigger diameter and wouldn't fit into the drop outs. anyone else run across this problem?

ok. so i got back into bikes through a ford truck seat for schwinn frame trade. i am pretty clueless still in the bike market, but am learning. i have spent way too much time with the 61-66 ford trucks and i think my brain is full. lol. anyways, here is my 61 "uni". i am thinking about doing my...
