    My other bikes: 1977 Typhoon and Huffy Tandem

    And to Randy (aka_locojoe), AMAZING resto. The part that catches my eye the most is the chain. I actually thought about redoing mine in orange too years back but I can't bring myself to do that since its in decent original shape. I kinda hate it when that happens. The...

    My other bikes: 1977 Typhoon and Huffy Tandem

    hahaha! good luck to them! I paid $150 (including shipping from MO) for my Typhoon in better shape than that one , and $80 for the old Huffy at a swap in Milwaukee.

    1966 Schwinn Frankenray (does this qualify as a rat rod?)

    Here it is siting on Main Street in Ardmore, Oklahoma during a little trip I took. Action shot of my sister riding it. Picked up this bike for $40 from Waupaca, WI. It's a Typhoon and anyone who's into old Schwinns knows Typhoons don't look like this. To give it a Stingray look, someone...
