I had posted a before pic of this in my introduction a few weeks ago, and this is an update. I'm in Central arkansas...Benton. I was given a girl's 26 inch Good Vibrations Huffy cruiser bike (only had flat tires, and headed to the trash by a resident here). Only pink on it is rims and a little trim, but mostly in black and white, with checkerboard accents on the back of the seat and on the chain guard. There are pinstriping decals on the ends of all the fenders, and they are not peeling, but are faded and sketchy, like pinstripes on an old, beat up custom hot rod. They are perfect. I saw the potential for a sweet, classic, custom mail-getter with high bars. No repaint or polishing. I like the original dull finish. Going to paint the rims flat black. Last 2 pics are with the high bars on and the checkered grips. And who says a 55 yr old man can't toodle around on a girl's bike? I'm probably senile, too.
