20 bucks thrown at this one.

I don’t know why I do it……. But this one called my name from the Denver Facebook marketplace. Really nice owner and went out of her way to make this happen. I only got it for those wild rear dropouts. I think the most enjoyable aspect of these buying adventures, is the line of BS I get to feed the wifey. She’s not buying any of it any more.

Great pick up, I've been on the watch for one of those bikes for a loooong time.

It’s on the eventual build frame line

I’m considering turning this one into a Nongoose.

Those dropouts just seem to be begging to be sculpted and modified.

I was wondering who made these frames. For years, there was one sitting in an old woman's garden close by, but deteriorated beyond help. It's gone now. I always wondered what was with those big, funky dropouts. Some kool stuff can be done with those.

Wives should be happy their husbands are chasing old bikes, and not other women.

I picked up a dad bike a couple of years ago for $ 10 . I felt sorry for it .
AMF bought the Roadmaster factory out and destroyed the company .

That looks eerily like an AMF Voyager.
