Low-Buck Lady Layback

[0gre]

So I'm late too, with a rescued schwinn cruiser. This will be my first official build, but I did one a couple years back and was too intimidated by the awesome customs and antiques some of the guys are doing on here! This will mostly be a cleanup/facelift for this girl. Here's the before's.

First pic... Interesting what happens when you put a cool seat on and flip the bars!!
Other pics: teardown progress.

Ditto! My thoughts exactly.

I get a chuckle every time I see your build name. No disrespect at all, but for some twisted reason I think it's the name of a character from a 70s pimp movie.
bow chicka wow wow

Ogre was the name of the big guy on revenge of the nerds, Frederick Polowowski I think.

I think Low-Buck Lady Layback worked for Huggy Bear.

LOL!! Funny stuff. Did a search but couldn't find Low-Buck Lady Layback, Huggy bear was from starsky and hutch.

Patina coming out nicely! My daughter suggested the color orange... Pretty sure this isn't the orange she envisioned!!
