Is it a sturmey Archer hub or shimano? I have a shifter and cable if it's shimano. ~Ron~

Great work! Can't wait to see more of this! ~Ron~

Here's a welcome from the thumb. Sweet bike, looks like a cool project in the making! Good luck! ~Ron~

It's a Schwinn stem that was on it. The friend I bought it from had ape bars and the springer off a stingray on it. He said he would dig around and try to find some more parts for it. I see what you mean about the upper bars. I will have to agree with you. That's really really close to the...

Okay, I took a few for ya. 1. 2. 3. Hopefully these help! ~Ron~

Wow thanks! This is really helpful! I will try to take a better pic tomorrow. You want an angle similar to the pic in your book?

I wasnt sure if that could be done. It seemed like the sprocket was integrated into the hub somehow. The wheel and hub are from a jc Higgins. I will take a closer look at it.

Hey guys, I just picked this ratty thing up from a friend over the weekend for 25 bucks. Here I go again getting myself into another project! Anyway I need some help with this. I have a vision in my head for it, but I'm not 100% sure about parts. Also I know identifying the year and model of...

It's a Schwinn frame, maybe the springer too. Looks like the frame was built 10/11/1952. http://www.angelfire.com/rant/allday101/SchwinnCodes3.html The rest I'm not so sure about. I can tell you that the chain ring and chain guard aren't original. A Schwinn guy could probably tell you more...

Sold the bike to a collector today. I was glad to see it go somewhere it will be loved and used! ~Ron~

Nice bike! Mine doesn't have the BMA/6 sticker so I'm gonna say it's older than that. ~Ron~

Welcome! Diggin the ol sears. ~Ron~

Just scooped this up today at the Ann arbor swap for a decent price... Not really sure what to do with it... Clean it up and flip it or build another custom from it. Any ideas? ~Ron~

Thanks guys, now I don't feel as bad about it. Especially since the Ann arbor swap is next weekend. I might find a cool project there. ~Ron~

Went to the "big" Argyle auction up here today and found a black 62 straight bar Typhoon. It was rough, had the wrong seat and needed tires, but it was strait and complete. Paint woulda cleaned up nice even on the wheels. It even had a high-low beam headlight+generator. I bid up to 75 bucks and...

Welcome from a fellow Michiganger! ~Ron~

Just got my decals today. They are certainly the finishing touch that she needed! ~Ron~

Here is a link to a site that may help tell if it's a true Manx or not... http://www.lightner.net/manxclub/realmanx.html ~Ron~

I got to bee-bop around in one of these last year during my trip to cali. Met my girlfriend's mom and boyfriend... They must've really liked me since I got to drive the one on the right. I love how these things run and drive. They have tons more power than you think, too. Desert running is...
