I've been off the forums for awhile but I figured you guys might like to see the transformation the Pinto has undergone. She's definitely a head turner now! https://1drv.ms/u/s!Av0o7gD42MmXjmSM3Hi1fykDd4Zz https://1drv.ms/u/s!Av0o7gD42MmXjmregXxbMVHTMGxE...

Hey guys! It's been a while since my last post. New job, new house, getting married; stuff like that. I was browsing through Facebook marketplace and came across something pretty cool that just so happens to fit my fiancé and my wedding theme and we both loved it from first sight. Drove 2 and a...

Did a few more upgrades to the Timberline. I ordered a new Shimano altus derailleur to replace the failing acera. I got 720mm bars and a 60mm stem for better control. I also got a steal on some 100mm Redland magnesium lockout forks. It feels like a brand new bike! Next thing on the list is an...

Hey everyone! I've been back on the bike wagon again recently and wanted to show you guys what I've been up to! I know it's not a classic or rat bike but it is old in the sense that 2001 was 16 years ago. (As I near the big 3-0 that thought terrifies me) Aside from propsing to my wonderful girl...

Hey y'all it's been a little while since I've posted. I've been on the hunt for a couple wheeled relics for my nieces. I found both in the same place today! Both for 40 bucks! First up is a *60's? Murray deluxe trike with the og seat and faux fender light. Second is an *80's? Ross polo bike...

I acquired a single matching saddle bag for the Pinto yesterday... Now finding the right side one will be like winning the lottery!

Thank you sir! If a Pinto or a magnum is what you are after try www.detroitmopedworks.com They usually come up with them every once and a while. Plus they may be able to find one for you. Alex owns the place and he is a top notch guy. They did all the engine work on my Pinto and girlfriend's...

Thought I'd throw this shot of the Nighthawk into the mix! [emoji1] Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk

Upon some further research I discovered what HSB&Co. stands for. -Hibbard, Spencer, Bartlett & Co. This leading hardware dealership was the descendant of a Chicago store called Tuttle, Hibbard & Co., which took that name in 1855 when William G. Hibbard became a partner. In 1865, Hibbard was...

Hopefully you have something similar under all that paint!

It may not be the same paint but it is the correct chainguard for the bike. Look at this on eBay http://www.ebay.com/itm/252486286856 Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk

Must've been the norm for them because my 37 has a sleeve as well. I wonder if they used "7's" till the 50s? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk

It is badged as a sun racer. It's built by Snyder just like rollfast. They did like Schwinn and had hardware and specialty badged bikes. I wouldn't be surprised if the fender stripes aren't the same as well. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk

Check the numbers on the bottom bracket. That frame looks identical to my 48 sun racer. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk

Those fenders are awesome! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk

I finally pushed myself to finish cleaning this thing and getting back together today! It was so worth it! It still needs the wheels rebuilt and trued and I'm getting some nice cream brick pattern tires for her as well. Certainly the best riding bike in the corral! Sent from my...

It's interesting. I have a 48 Snyder frame that has a similar chainring. It has the reverse code on the bottom bracket and front facing dropouts. I also have a 37 Snyder built rollfast bike. Oddly enough the last number in the serial is a 7. Whether or not that has any relation to it being a...

Can you get us a picture of the number on the bottom bracket? I know there is a way to tell but only after 1940. The early ones are kinda difficult. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk

Okay guys, I'm in a bit of a internal battle with tire choices. I know I want to use up all the fender space I can so fat franks came to mind. I know I don't just want black walls and I dont feel like white walls either. So it's beige... Or clay... Or crazy insane red white walls...

I've uploaded a better video of the Pinto to YouTube. Enjoy guys! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk
