Not quie "Rat Rod Clean" :wink: but pretty nice nonetheless.
Kind of overcast and rainy at 7:00 am this morning but the paint is pretty nice, chrome cleaned up super.

That's a real beauty alright....definitely up to my cleanliness standards...ha ha!

What are you going to do with it?
 
I see that Phil grease peaking out of that front hub. :wink:

With the right photos and description you should do pretty well with it...on Ebay that is.

I can stare at clean coppertone bike all day. :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock:
 
Park grease actually, I like it better than the Phil stuff, its a little thinner and easeier to pack into bearings etc. I cleaned and repacked all the bearings as they were pretty dried out, spokes only needed a little tensioning. Took the brakes all apart, cleaned and greased the little washers, lubed all the cables, just a typical tune up is all it needed.

I'll have to take some sunny day photos for the bay but the color does kind of pop in the overcast light... :roll:
 
It's funny, i couldn't get $200.00 for that nearly new antifreeze Caliente with freewheeling bottom bracket on ebay and it was every bit as clean as your Collegite. Oh well, i hope i do better with this one.
