Had this frame rotting in the pile for years now. I got a set of green anodized rims and the lightbulb went off. Green ano and white ties? It looks great. The tires just fit the schwinn varsity fork. All I really had to do was swap out the freewheel hub with a coaster. The whole thing took little more than an hour to build. The headbadge used to say "Norseman".

The bike looks great.

Just curious, are you posting your Flickr photos from a phone app?
 
I stopped by Rev's shop last week and took this for a spin around the block - rides great, even if this felt a little small for my leggy 6'1" build. I don't think I could ride it if it'd been built with flipped bars and a dropped seat, boardtrack-style.
