My original Ross Barracuda 3 speed with the factory Futura handlebars.
amazing example! I have "The Beast" model but would love to find a Futura Barracuda to go with it!

I seem to find a lot of green bikes

This is still my go-to rider. Crusty and trusty.

Two-speed Bendix trigger shift. Was excited to find this one.

Recently updated this to a 2-speed kickback, then noticed that the forks need some attention.

Bought this to go with my camelback Collegiate shown above in the hopes that my wife would ride it. It hasn't worked so far, but I haven't given up yet.

Fixed this one up and gave it to my daughter.

I bought these when they were out for Christmas that year and I wanted to get back into old bikes but didn't want to spend hundreds on an old Stingray. Tinkered with it for several years, then put the 16" wheel and striped seat and junk bars back on it and sold it.

I apparently didn't learn my lesson when I sold the one above this one. Currently living in my son's basement; I have to figure out what to do with it.

Bought this with no wheels or shifter for something like 5 bucks at a yard sale, got some pieces together for it, then lost interest and sold it.

A previous build off entry (it glows in the dark as some may suspect)

i'd be nippin at mums heels to get to pop's place if I knew that was there waiting just for me! what a bike!, that matching hubs n post, the sproket n cranks, looks immaculate!
This was Scat Rat, a build from awhile back. My first attempt at a splatter paint job. It was the last decent scrap frame from the junk shop. It's lightened up now in the latest version.

hard to tell in this picture that it's green, but it is. It's a very dark green, like a cucumber. It's my only green bike. 2008 Windor Tourist bought from BD.
