firestone girls bike

[dragnusa]

I was over at a friends the other day and I was walking out to their metal building and seen this sitting behind a neighbors building, asked my friends if they thought the guy would get rid of it. They told me at church to come and get it the guy said if I could use it I could have it.

Not sure what firestone called them but its just like the western flyer sonic flyer i redone for my wife last summer

Ok, never seen a chia bike before, but what looks like rust on this bike is actually a moss so actually other then the ugly rattle can yellow paint over the firestone red the frame is in real great shape.

Gee it's tough to get feed back on girl's bikes isnt it? Got any ideas which way you're going to go with the Chia bike yet?
I posted a 24" girl's Shelby and a skip tooth girl's Hawthorne here recently. Some of the Shelby parts went to other bikes, but there's enough left to build a pretty interesting rider, I have some good ideas on that one.
The Hawthorne donated a bunch of parts to other causes too, but I don't know which way to go with the old frame.
I don't like to waste stuff and don't have room to keep all the parts either, but old girl's bikes are hard to find homes for or justify putting the time into sometimes. Sometimes you've just gotta build whatchya got though.Everything has potential.

So you're gonna start a herd of Turtles then. Very Good Idea!

This will be for my daughter so she can have one like her momma.

That's the only way to go tor sure. That will make this bike priceless forever.
