Great bike! It was badged for a small "mom & pop" bike shop in York PA. The shop closed for good, just a few years ago...

I only picked up a few.. These were my favorites... An NOS 5 speed Chopper frame. A ratty MK2 Chopper 69 MK1 tall frame Chopper I also picked up another 69 tall frame, black & orange, but I didn't take any pix. I tore it down shortly after I got it. I plan on restoring it because...

Ninety miles....? I've driven further than that for just a few bottle caps...

If you are going all original, I have a pair of front and rear center stamped S-5 rims for it. They are very nice condition (no brake rub & real nice chrome) & include the correct Sprint hubs and Sprint 5 speed cog. I probably have a nice Sprint derailleur around here too...

I usually use FedEx Ground, I find them to be the cheapest but I do have an account so it saves me a few extra dollars off their over the counter price...

Unfortunately I don't have the storage to keep everything I clean out. When the owners, estate executors or realtors give you X numbers of days to have these places cleaned out there's not a lot of time to decide where things might be best served. The really good items are usually dealt with...

I am fairly new to this forum. I've started a few builds years ago but time constraints have slowed down my hobby time considerably. I've been checking out all of the really awesome builds here and realized that for years I have been scrapping some really awesome "junk" that could be used for...

I don't sell much on ebay anymore. The last bike part I sold there was 8 or 10 years ago. I just got tired of the fees and the rudeness of some of the people that buy and sell there. Don't take it personally because you never know who you are dealing with on the other end of the auction. Look at...

Here's one I have in the shop. My favorite non-AMC automotive sign....

"I see clay-red tires in your future" I was thinking the same thing....

Hey... I've got a desk drawer section/ tool box just like that one. I use mine for a tool box too. Thing's as heavy as a house....:21:

Nice!

Does anyone out there make any metal tanks? I'd like to see some pix of a hand formed steel tank. I was planning on bending up a tank on my finger brake or maybe hammering out a tank from some 18 or 20 gauge steel. I haven't sat down and designed anything yet but I have some interesting ideas...

Here's 3 that I picked up at the Trexlertown show this year. Somewhere I have a display board with about 15 more on it.

Nice buy... Around here you can't buy any bike for less than $30 at the VOA or Salvation Army. Even if they're missing both wheels...

I recently picked up a few 24" ladies bikes that I might use for a build but before I cut them up I thought I would ask if they have any collector value. The plan was to convert one of them to a boy's, mild stretch, straight bar frame and to add a long tank. I want to give it a board track look...

I like yours better than the OCC model. Hard to believe that they've been out that long...

Yeah but I think he looks pretty good for someone that's dead....:grin:

Sounds like a plan...

I extended the head tube on my 20" frame to make a 26" Elgin fork work on my build (a number of years ago). I let this thing set idle for the past 12 years. Now I am planning on making some changes and finishing the project. Not cutting & shorting the steering tube allows me to use the original...
