Here I am, I don't know how many other girl builders are entered here but, I decided to give it a go, I am starting with a 57 Schwinn American with a really ugly coat of flamingo ,coral ..paint its ugly, I am learning why my husband is outside so long ,its harder taking them apart then I thought. The hardest part was getting the fork off, the stem did not survive, unfortunately. My husband Jim is going to help me lace up the wheels, that includes a drum brake on the front, more photo's as the build moves forward.
