Firestone Frame

[TGTINT]

Thinking of scooping up a bare frame for $50 its probably from the 50's anyone have any pictures for motivation? Not sure if its the right one for me or not. Any opinion on price?

Thanks,

Tim

To much for a bare frame. Unless it has any goodies with it (bearing cups, bearings, cranks, head tube assembly) I would say no more then $30 unless of course you HAVE to have it then its worth whatever you want to pay

Do you want it enough to pay $50? If your trying to fix it to sell it , it sounds like a money loser. If your going to make it for yourself and like the frame, then if its worth it to you , buy the frame but try talking the seller down.Any item is only worth what your willing to pay for it .

Yep its for personal, I'll marinate on it I guess. I'm looking at a lot of (schwinn) bikes and parts so I might go that route instead. I really dig the different frame though, not the usual Schwinn style frame you see everywhere down here in Socal.
