Another Emory out the door

[Wildcat]

I picked up this $15 bike at a thrift store for the HD wheels w SA 3 speed/coaster. My sister's friend wanted a beach cruiser with one speed, so it worked out. Wheels/tires from a 2 dollar yard sale bike, alloy at that, and red rustoleum did the trick. The bike gets dropped off today for a cool 50 bucks. Not bad for a 1984 American made bike.

nice job, looks a lot better. Also did you swap the crank?

Yes the old cranks had lost the chrome on the left side, so the whole drive train came off the donor sand dollar beach cruiser, zinc plated chain included. I also kept the big seat for my next build, it is just the right look for it, and put a seat from another Emory on it. I just got word that she rides this bike everyday.
