Beautiful bike on a beautiful landscape. Beautiful and tough (the bike, and I guess the landscape, too). Great job, and close to ground zero to what it’s all about. Nice work. furyus

Remarkable transformation. Good thing you saw the potential in that bike because I surely didn’t - I would’ve walked right on by. Shoot, I bet it’s nicer now than when it was new. Love the hubs! Love the color scheme! Nice build. furyus

Oozing attitude. This bike would kick my a.... Love the moto bars, too, even though we can’t see ‘em here. What’s next, man? furyus

Blue Schwinn’s rock, and yours is no exception. Seat is awesome. Bet this bike rides nice. furyus

Love the presentation with the Schwinn advert and the presumed history. Fantastic. You gotta be doing some art on the side (or the front) to pull those off. And that’s not to mention the bike itself. Super cool, and tempting me horribly, because I know it’s way faster and more comfortable than...

This exactly, and exactly what I thought. I could not for the life of me figure out your (GC) obsession with “burrito” bikes, though I do much admire your plain ol’ flat out hard-headed stubbornness on making this bike happen. And while Selector is dancing around calling it “perspective,” I’ll...

That loaf is home. Bike does look fun to ride, too. I’d beat on it, then leave it on it’s side in the yard when I got called into dinner. Those were the days. Cool bike, Big. furyus

How do you come up with this stuff, King? Was this bike kept in a vault? The decals and plastics look new. And the Apache guy, you know all this stuff was planned out before we were born. There are no coincidences. So enjoy the ride (metaphysically speaking). furyus

I prefer iron oxide, but must admit your bike looks wonderful. Great job. furyus

It didn’t look rat before you started, it looked ragged. Great job arresting the decline - she looks proud once again. Too bad you live on some far away glacier or I’d insist we go for a ride. furyus

For school. Thanks Odder.

Thank you Luke. Fist bump all the way across the planet. Thank YOU for all the constant support and enthusiasm you show everyone here. If we could meet in person I’d make Odd Job give you a hug. furyus

Sense and Sensibility: A Builder’s Story. A Lifetime Channel special; watch your local listings (do people watch local listings anymore?). Too bad the name is taken. You’re too kind, Odd, and thirsty has gotten me in trouble. Now I stay hydrated. furyus

Thanks, Selector. Fascinated by it myself. Old abandoned cars that were someone’s pride and joy back in ‘49 or ‘58 or ‘67. Love sitting by an old car and listening to it decay. Silence, punctuated by the song of a bird or the rustle of leaves in the breeze, and maybe, if the wind is right, a...

coda noun co·da | \ ˈkō-də \ 1a: a concluding musical section that is formally distinct from the main structure b: a concluding part of a literary or dramatic work 2: something that serves to round out, conclude, or summarize and usually has its own interest After a dozen or so Sting-Rays...

Finished. Snuggled up with my wife’s ‘68 Slik Chik. furyus

I think when I figured out how to do this I made more of a Homer Simpson d’oh sound (my wife yelled down “are you okay?”), but I’ll take the rare brilliant if you’re handing them out. Thank you. furyus

Let’s get started! Trim trim. Sorry Steve. But I did save the best part! Emery cloth. Scuff scuff. Grease is the time, is the place, is the motion Grease is the word And in this case, of course I’ll use official Schwinn grease from the freewheel off my ‘63 Superior. Dab dab dab...

Ha! And I'm over here rubbing oil onto old bike parts and calling it a "build." Your stuff is clearly a few levels above the ordinary, TJ. Holy Toledo on the diagrams, dude. furyus

Sarcasm, TJ. Kinda like if I said Jan is way hotter than Marsha (eye roll). Regardless, your work is fantastic. furyus
