I'm looking for a tank for this beast. I don't want to spend big $$$ for one. If anyone has a rusty tank let me know. Pat

That's a beauty.

I can't help identify anything but what a cool bike!

I was watching ↑ tank but it got too expensive. I did get some work done on this bike tonight. I got the new tires installed, rebuilt the rear hub and replaced the bottom bracket. Now it rides like a dream and looks great too.

Re: Full View- Biggus Discus Great build. The wheel discs look awesome.

Great looking bike. Nice action shot too.

Yes you can lock the frame so it rides like a normal bike. It is actually harder to ride in the locked position because there is a little play which makes the bike feel loose. Thanks for the positive comments guys.

Very nice build. Your son had the coolest bike in the neighborhood!

Nice looking bike. I have never seen a 26" bmx.

I finished my swingbike build today. I am pretty happy with the way it turned out even after all the problems and unexpected expenses. This is my first time in a buildoff. Here is what I started with. Here she is all done. Here it is before I made the sprocket cover.

Re: Swingbike Its done, its done!!! I finally finished this project and it looks great! I got my seat posts welded up and the disc made for the sprocket cover to make it look like an AO series swingbike. Here are some pictures...I will post the rest in the finished section. Here is is without...

Re: fair lady for my lady I was expecting a banana seat bike. Great looking bike. I would have to add some white wall tires.

Thanks for the links. Even though adding a motor would be fun I don't think it's in my budget. I will keep it rusty for now. Who knows maybe sometime in the future I will do more with this bike. I did see a 1946 whizzer motor on eBay.

I don't see anything welded for the brake but I do see where the frame has been strengthened by the seat post. I will get a picture of that later. The rack has six holes also.

I will try to get the crank pulled on this sometime this weekend. Then I will know for sure.

Awesome finds! Are you going to build them?

He pointed out that the frame had this dimple in it which he claims would have been set up for a whizzer. But I don't know what he knows about bikes. He also told me this was a pre war bike which it clearly is not. Look for the red arrow.

The number is on the BB. It is a 26"

I just picked up this Schwinn balloon tire bike today. Not sure exactly what it is. Serial number appears to be B99164. Previous owner thought it was factory set up for a whizzer motor with the heavy duty spokes and the way the frame is made. This has the ultra cool plane & train head badge...

Re: Simpleton - the straightforward straightbar! Looks great. I hope to build a klunker someday. Don't forget to post this in the finished section.
