    big day for finds.....

    It's seems like most of the bikes come out from the midwest or upper east coast. There's nothing out in CA either, so you're not the only one.

    Coca Cola tandem "tandemonium!" 3/21

    Re: Coca Cola tandem I like the current color scheme. Looks like a Columbia to me.

    Slick Ricks Phony Phantom project!

    Search online for decal makers. There used to be a few of them out there that would make waterslide decals from your artwork. Some, for an additional fee, will work on the artwork for you.

    the water -based experiment

    Water based paint is the law in SoCal already and will be in NorCal in 2010, I believe. Most everybody in big urban/populated areas are spraying with waterborne paint. I see cars painted with it everyday and feel that the coverage, matching and metallics are far better than urethane paint...

    Columbia 1939 Superb old as grandma! Rear Fender Like Whoa!

    I have a chainguard and rear rack that might work and look right at home on that bike. The chainguard says Columbia on it. LMK if you're interested.

    IN CASE YOU PASS ONE UP...

    I work in SF and let me tell you, there are bikes everywhere. I see plenty of "vintage" Schwinns and all type of fixies out there. I even see a few old beat up cruisers around. Nothing too expensive, but ratty. SF is a bike theif's paradise!

    Vintage Ice Cream Bike ???

    Nice bike! It's probably a good thing that I live on the west coast... There's still stuff out there like this in the midwest and east coast. Most of California and the west coast region has been picked over and if there's something interesting like what you have around here, it'll be very...

    I Have A Wagon(pictures)

    I have a wagon, err, a few of them, too. Just picked these two up from the curb earlier this week. It was clean up time in the neighborhood where my wife owns a preschool. Got this one for free from a neighbor some time ago. Has a rusted out floor from which the front wheel assembly has...

    Re: Greetings from Latvia (intro included) As a fellow comrad, ex-Ukranian now living in the U.S., I'd love to see the photos of your bikes. Especially the one made in the Ukraine. Please try to correct your photo links or give us a link to your photo album. Thanks, Ilya

    Felt Bicycle Pics

    He is likely. I'm the first Ukranian member. My family emigrated here from the Ukraine, when still under Russia's rule, in 1989.

    Mack Jr (photochop??? 06*02*09)

    Re: Mack Jr I don't like going to old car auctions because I want all of the cars there. :mrgreen: $70, huh??? It is a rare truck. Be prepared to spend a lot of money on that restoration.

    РУССКАЯ РУЛЕТКА-Russian Roulette

    Re: Черный велосипед-Black Bicycle Yup. That's true. It's a triangle, but without the bottom line. I'd know. I was born there, but left while I was in 5th grade.

    Trying to get this thing back on the road

    I don't have this one to play with... It's out being worked on some electrical and mechanical issues. Was told by the guy that's working on it that it'll need an engine job in a year or so. Will need to come up with $5k for the engine rebuild. Hopefully there'll be a bonus at work next...

    Trying to get this thing back on the road

    I finally dropped an engine in this beast. Still have a few more things to tidy up before she's running. Keeping my fingers crossed. I finally figured out what I'll use it for once it's back on the road. I'm thinking 50s style design on each side of the Panel with a real (local) bike shop...

    What's up with PMs?

    Not sure if this is the correct forum for this. Everytime I go to send a PM, I get another screen that I'm directed to when I hit "Send" that asks me if I'm a human or to say hello. System wants to make sure that I'm not a spambot. When I answer, it then goes back to the RRB website, but...

    Picked up 61 unibody lastnight

    Still, roughly for $1k you have yourself a decent truck that you could still double the profit. Give me a week or two to find the issue. I just moved and packed away all of the magazines. Will let you know when I find it.
