    66-67 Murray Scrambler

    Picked this up at a bike swap a couple months ago and never shared it. its a 20” Murray Scrambler Early Era style Muscle Bike. Originally had chrome fenders and a Vroom style motor on it. So I will see if I can hunt those down over time. Really liked the unique bars and Junior size solo polo seat

    As I said in my other post I must be a little Nuts to start a second bike, but I am like a kid with a new toy and when I get a good deal too, I cannot help myself. So about 4 weeks ago I went past a local bike show and swap and came upon this December 65 Stingray Frame, Fork, And Guard combo...

    Finally have the name and have the bike.

Waited too long to get involved last year so I missed out, looking forward to the builds...

    Green Columbia

    Finally got a little time to clean this up. It's a 1969 Columbia PlayBike and very original down from what I can tell. Rides well, has a bendix redline rear hub, and a nice glitter style seat.

    Columbia Show Find

    Went to the Addison, IL Bike Show/Swap a week ago and scored this Columbia and a few others. It's a Columbia Rambler Deluxe, seems pretty original and came complete with new White Wall Tires and Tubes. Plan to use it as my Summer cruiser along with my other Columbia Rat Bike.

    Trail Bike and Sears 70

    Pick these two little ones last night, Orange is Hedstrom(Reminds me of a mini bike) really liking the frame and seat design, and the green one is a Sears. I think they are both from the early 70's.

    Japan Built Muscle Bike Rat

    Pulled this one from Craig's last night, evidently it has been bouncing around the area being flipped from one to another. Appears it resurfaced in a thrift store in a rusty state, went the online auction direction and later sold to the guy I bought it from. He cleaned it up a bit, great job on...
