Got the bike as finished as I can get it before the deadline. I still need an inner seat pan to get the seat looking better. Pretty happy with it overall. Build Thread Here

Looking for a reflector for my 1947 J.C. Higgins woman's Color Flow. Thanks

I'm throwing my hat in the ring with a 1953 Monark Rocket. My plan is to create a bike that a young boy would have made to haul his baseball gear to the baseball diamond. I am going to add a different rear rack and soda crate to haul baseballs and gloves. I plan to recover the seat with leather...

Found this bike at a yard sale recently. Not sure what it is. I have pics of the bike over on thecabe.com.

Need dimensions of a JC Higgins header decal. I know a few people on here have this bike. I need the height and the width of the decal. I plan to reproduce a few. Thanks

Here is a pic of my daily rider. Its a JC Higgins frame with Felt Rims and tires. Huge A** seat. I cut the neck down 3 1/2 in. Plan on putting some small bobbed fenders on it. Pic was taken in front of my 63 Caddy Coupe Deville.

Picked this bike up this past weekend. 1920's Rollfast with 28" wood clad rims. I have a seat in route in the mail and once it arrives I plan to ride the bike around town. It has New Departure coaster brake on the back. It has chain thread single tube tires as well which I am now finding out are...

I plan on fixing this up for the build off. It's a 37-38 Hawthorne. I am going to do a Stevie Ray Vaughn theme. The theme is inspired by this song. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=McI1NJ_iG24

I picked up this frame the other day and have no clue what it is. I also posted pics on the CABE.

I acquired this bike yesterday from an old couple. I went to the local museum in town and ending up meeting a lady who runs the place and the subject of old bikes came up. She tells me that her husband still has his old bike that he bought used back in 1942. She also tells me that he keeps...

I went to the local metal scrap yard and came across these two bikes. A 1950's? Huffy? 24in. The head badge says Huffy. Not sure the model or year. It is skip tooth with a New Departure rear hub. It has a Royce light up front. I might try and turn this into a cycle truck of sorts. Next...

Found this in the local paper for $20. The guy lived about 1/4 mile away. I walked to his house to take a look and ended up riding it home. It has a couple layers of paint on it. I might sandblast the frame and repaint it. It has a Hiawatha rear hub on it. Didn't find a serial number or anything...

This has to be in Florida because Jimmy Buffett is playing in the background! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=icweOqQwPFY&feature=related

Here is another build I have going on along with my 1960 Hercules. It is a late 30's Murray frame. I had it sandblasted and primered by a local paint shop. I got a X 53 springer fork off of ebay for it. I plan to run it skip tooth as I have the orginal crank and I am picking up a Bendix skip...

I picked up this Hercules 3 speed bike over the weekend. It is in rough shape but the Archer hub was in good shape. I plan on adding a brooks saddle, get the hub working again, straighting the rims out, and get some new tires. I am leaving the frame as is it. Should be a fun project.

Well, looks like we are going to clean and fix up my girlfriend's old bike from when she was little. Looks all original even the cobwebs :roll: Not sure how old it is might have to search for a serial number and look it up.

Well, one day I recieved this old specialized hardrock bike from a friend at work for free. I decided to turn it into a single speed commuter bike for college. With 66OLDS98 leading the project and doing the mechanical work, this is what came out. I have a flat bar that I need to eventually...

Here goes I guess, my introduction. Originally from south Florida now living in eastern Oregon. Going to school at EOU. My friend 66OLDS98 told me to ckeck out this site and have been hooked ever since. I currently own a Specialized Hardrcok Pro, Specialized Tri Cross, and a Specialized...
