Sweet Typhoon

This was caught an hour after being listed. You would cry if you know what I paid and he got his price. It was hanging upside down and was very dusty. I was filthy just putting it in the truck.. all original but for pedals and tires. and the add on bottle holder. Gonna make a nice klunker with orig paint. Last pic is simply rinsed off and wiped dry.

Nice pickup. Schwinn paint cleans up so nicely

That's a one coat of wax paint resto, right there.

I had a Schwinn Colegate the same wonderful Blue. Woulda kept it but it was too small for me.

oh how I hate the riding position with those bars. I feel like Miss Gulch riding the bike on Wizard of Oz. Guess I'm spoiled with the MTB and BMX bars... Maybe if I flip them over?

Some of my parts came in. Still deciding on what to do about wheels, these are cast offs that take normal size 26in tires. I peeled the "Landing Gear" off the forks. At least I can ride it this wekeend....

Proper, way intrusive on that bike IMO.

Getting closer.... But the fork looks too plain now. Got a couple of ideas brewing for some decals there.
