Bolts all rusted on,seat and grips wrong and a little scratched up. The grease in bottom bracket is rock hard, but it was a bargain.

Desert BB Grease from the Petrified Bike Forest
Actually a Cali beach bike,Salt water crust. Guy moved here from California.
Southern California is essentially a desert with a slightly Mediterranean Climate on the coast.
Lucky score . It's usually that chain wheel that is badly rusted . Seat may be from another bike.
The seat was badly glued together not worth saving.
Sweet! What's the plan for it? Fix it up back to original, or customize it?
Not sure yet,was planning on cleaning,greasing and flipping it but we will see.
If I sell it I'll use the Micargi seat,if keep I'll use the Gyes.
Looks better sans fenders,just needs fatter tires.
At sunset
I'm looking for some 3" tires for it,there's plenty of room.
