A.S.BOLTNUT, is that black one a Sears, maybe? It looks like this one http://peoria.craigslist.org/bik/1118923646.html, same dropouts. Anyway it would make a cool build. Nice load of bikes, whats the wife gonna say? Hope you took care of the lawn, tree, pantry and car... maybe you should do a few other things too! Like hide those bikes! GOOD LUCK :lol:
 
looks like you got your self a nice little collection, thoes should be fun to restore, your wife allready found 2 seats for you

now that is what i call keeping busy. speaking as another married man with the same "addiction", you have figured out what to tell your wife, right? you outta fix one of them up for her, that seemed to help me last time i came home with a truck load of bikes. a girls hawthorne cruiser, a 24" girls roadmaster mtn bike, a girls huffy seqoia 26" mountain bike and two matching 20" kent tracclimber bmxs all into the back of a 79' chevy luv WITH a shell on the back. as i pulled into the driveway i felt excited, anxious, happy and dirty all at the same time. love the finds, man. :wink:
 
hey road master you might be on to something but i acually have used that one before the first bike hunt i went on i broght home a very rusty girls mid wieght jaguar if i can recall right., and her reply was what you gonna do with that hunk of junk ?well to make a long story short when i was done with that bike she loved it painted it red and white with chrome fenders white ballon tires it was nice in fact it is featured in the evolution of bycicles II a bike book that memmory lane once sold { dont know if they sill do } but any way looks like i"ll have to build another girls bike . thanx for the tip!! :)
 
no problemo, bro. its that good california "lookin out". i just wish that i had kids i could build up for, cuz that would make it easier for any 20" bike to make its way onto my property.

Yeah, the only problem with bringing home 20 inch bikes and having kids is they wont let you get rid of them like my daughter who cant ride but claimed like three bikes already.
And as far as your Kawasaki (I have one just like it) I believe its a about a 96
 
hey fellow CALI .DUDES ! yah im with you about the kids thing,, my grandson wont let me get rid of anything ! but i use him alot too ., oh anthony just had to have that bike :mrgreen: and thanx gold street for the info on that kawasaki igot that to flip it but that kid wont let it go .and i picked up a pretty cool red line today he"ll probally latch on to that too . 8)
