How Buy..sell..Trade Bikes..( Pictures of my 2 New Bikes )

[Clothespin n]

Drive all over Town..go to every Garage sale,
Thrift Store, Flea Market for a few Months.

Collect up 11 Bikes and sell them to a Friend who Owns a Bike Shop
for Re-sale.

Money Spent on Bikes = $ 210.00


What I ended up with below;
$495.00 and a 1967 Schwinn with 144 Spoker's Springer,
Schwinn Classic Brick Treads.Re-Chromed Vintage Shelby Cranks and Chainring.( and a 1948 JC Higgins B-Hive Springer and a set of
perfect Vintage Firestone Tires.

AND THEN AFTER ALL THOSE GREAT SALES..
on My Way to a Vancruisers Ride with my New 1967 Schwinn,
I phoned a Guy who JUST POSTED a Brand new
Kustom Kruiser "Slick Daddy"
His Dad Blew Out his Knee and couldn't Ride anymore.
It's got 10 Hours of Ride Time on it!!!!!

He was asking $800.00 Canadian for This Slick Daddy,
as a JOKE!!! I offered him $450.00( $405.00 American )
and he said Yes..I near Crapped my Pants!!

So,
The Long and short of it is that I Spent $220.00( and went to a lot of Garage sales :mrgreen: )
and I now have what you see in The Pic's Below..

It's good to be Patient!!!!!

1967 Vette Customized..

Slick Daddy"Brand New"
Firestone's
49-57 JC Higgins Springers.

It was a great Day Yesterday..
and The Vancruisers Ride was awesome on That Slick Daddy!!!

peace,
Kev.

[Easy Skywalker]

Whooaa, business is booming Kev! Hella cool bikes!

The 67 Schwinn is awesome...is that your first vintage Schwinn cruiser?

I guess you can tell us what you think about old Schwinns compared to the other brands. :mrgreen:

That color is interesting too....not sure if I've seen it before.

 

[ricksterr1221]

WOOT! KEV U FINALLY GOT UR SELF A SCHWINN!!!

 

[tomb]

that front fork on the '67 is really cool. beefy!

 

[ricksterr1221]

Kev, are all them in ur house? AWSOME! I wish i could keep my bikes in the house.

 

[Clothespin n]

that front fork on the '67 is really cool. beefy!

Those Truss / Strur Rods actually Pivot really well.
You'de think they would make it a Fixed set up and not allow
for The Spring action,
But he built them to Pivot without the nuts coming Loose..
I Love the Beafy Look as well!

and Ratrod,
I was Told it is a 67 Corvette.
The Center Tube has a Faded out Checkered Pattern.
I'll Post the serial number's soon..

And that Kustom Kruiser "Slick Daddy" is sweet!
They are selling for about $850.00 American and I scooped it up
for $400.00 American.

I will Post The Build I have Planned for the Slick Daddy :wink:
