Day 1:
Today is day one of my first bike build. I decided to do a Schwinn 26 and just picked up this bare frame (1964 I think) to start with. Today I am media blasting all the old paint and grunge off and getting ready for some minor surgury to the frame. It will have a 3" rear tire have a low seating position. Most of the parts to complete have been identified, bought and are in route so this should go together fairly quick. I will post up progress photos at build intervals.
This bike will be used as a pit bike at the SCCA races on the west coast and should turn some heads. Stay tuned.
