Looking at your build, I will definitely have to make sure to change a few more things on the build I have parts coming for. Several similarities, but a different vision of a muscle build. But seeing yours coming along nicely makes me anxious to get the pieces to get started with.

Done. For now. Might BLO the frame, opinions?

Now the she is done, it’s just cosmetic stuff for now. Should I leave the patina as is or pull some oil on it to make the patina shine more?

Yes, fixie. Adding a brake until I get use to stopping.

Still need to add grip tape and temporarily adding a front brake so I don’t kill anyone or myself while riding it initially. Lol

Here is my late 40s model Schwinn DX Spitfire build. I bought this at an estate sale and was told it was only good for garden art. Therefore, the Defiant Gnome needed to come to life. The forks were bent and hubs were shot, so I decided to go more extreme and do a modern build on the great...

Didn’t get a chance to do this build as we’ve been dealing with family health issues. I plan on getting back to this hopefully soon.

Work in progress.

Not necessarily in honor of anyone in particular. I personally have one and have served with and know many that have one as well. I have considered putting names of those that I have served with that have one on there.

Thanks @RustyGold! I was researching Huffy serial numbers and kept finding conflicting information for HC serial numbers. Evidently these must be slightly rare? I can’t see the images that @Bike from the Dead posted but I snagged this one for $50. Based on what little I’ve been able to...

Just added this on to the small collection. My son is still too small for it so I have some time before he can ride it to get it going. Looks to be a 1979 Huffy Sit-on-it from what I can tell.

Actually, at that price, shipping can’t be that bad. Just let me know what shipping is to 73078 and I’ll get you some money.

Interested! What would shipping be to 73078?

I picked up a Felt Rockstar frame from @kram that I think will work for the Purple Heart theme build I’ve been thinking about. Still new to this so will stay in the class 1 category most likely.

How much to ship Rockstar to 73078?

Thank you for the information. I still have a lot to learn, so thank you for helping me. Makes sense what you are saying about the DX frame.
