A 1950 Schwinn Hornet straight-bar that I got off Ebay. Spent a lot of time under a leaky roof by the looks off it.
The rims & spokes were a lost cause and I'm going to build a board-tracker so the fenders aren't needed either. I'm thinking Nexus-4 on the back, Brooks saddle & primer-red paint...
Took advantage of the fact that it didn't rain/hail storm in Toronto on the weekend and ground off the paint with a drill & 8 nylon wheels:
If the weather holds up tomorrow I'll attack the frame with some rattlecan primer
