    Ok so since my last inventory post I have gotten rid of a bunch and got the unit cleaned out and I'm down to just my favorites. Made a sweet deal with a friend and got rid of 14 bikes in one shot. The catch was they were free on the condition he take them all! So the rat tandem, the girl's...

    New chain on the Dyno and looks much better. The black and chrome really play well with the rest of the bike.

    1985 Mongoose ATB Pro Series

    Found this holy grail the other day at a local flea market. 1985 Mongoose ATB Pro Series (All Terrain Bicycle) I was born in 1985 so this is extra cool for me. This thing is about as minty as it gets. Can't wait till I have time to clean it up.

    GT tires on GT Mohawk hub rims, with GT pegs on all 4 corners. It does have a few small areas (smaller than a dime) where the chrome is peeling so not perfect but definitely survivor quality and all there. Now I wish I'd have kept my GT mags.

    It is a GT stamped Viscount seat. Good eye. I been out of the BMX market for a while what would something like this go for cleaned and serviced? Or would it be better to sell exactly as found? I have a new black and chrome chain for it that would really make this bike pop. Also I just got...

    So I got to tinkering around and I think I now have a direction to go on this old Schwinn ratty girl's bike I've got.... Hear me out. Going to make a few mounts and use this JC Higgins tank I got a while back and trim the tank so it fits over the upper bar of the girl's bike. This could work...

    It's very French... Found this 1980's Peugeot Montreal Express mountain bike today. They were asking $100 and it was only 8 miles out of town. I went to look at it and other than a slight 1/8th inch wobble in the back wheel, dry rotted tires, and everything needing a little oil and grease it...

Still have some cleaning to do but this Next bike couldn't have been a better donor. The Next bike donated: 48h chrome rims F&R Like new...

    Got my new tires in today for my Huffy Racing 50 and got them installed. This one is pure nostalgia for me and brings back lots of good memories. And back on the wall. Still have a little clean up to do but that's a job for later.

    If it was a men's bike all day long. Being a woman's bike cut that in half and even then they are a tough sell.

    Well another day another trade session. I had a guy message me on one of my listings and ask about trades and I got tons of cool stuff. I normally don't take girl's bikes but I have been in the market for a nice one so my girlfriend has something to ride when we go out for rides. This Schwinn...

    This could be your next find

    A good friend of mine stumbled upon an absolute mother load of cool frames and parts. Figured I'd direct some love his way and help my rat rod brethren here at the same time. Prices are good and selection is on point. Located in Marion, Indiana. Contact through add...

    Better pictures. Got the green Schwinn and the patina is great. Love the green. Also got an unknown Dyno frame that has been previously spray painted olive drab green so I decided to give it the old scuff and shoot. Now to order some new decals. Decided to highlight the D in the stem with the...

One of my contacts I've done business with before just got the mother load of prewar frames and a bunch of bikes so we were going through some of it and showing off our latest scores and that caught my eye. Trading the stingray...
