New here, like most I've been to this site afew times and finally decided to join in. I'm located in Edinburg,TX. about half an hour from the border. I've always been into custom bikes ever since my childhood neighbor was making them in his backyard. I currently have a Murray with custom tank and crescent covers in the rear. I also have a 60's Schwinn American that's got a seized sprocket and handle bars, not sure if to sell it as a parts bike or just replace parts and add new wheels, the body has a nice patina on it though. Finally I have a 70's Open Road chopper that I have been trying to find more info on and nothing comes up only an old ad from ebay. I hope to learn more about all bikes in general as I read on,thanks.

I'm really curious about this one though. The original front tire rim was bent so I replaced both to match. The front rim only had 14 or 16 spokes, I also added the chain gaurd. It was already painted blue when I got it bit that is the original sticker on the tank.
