Picked up this vintage skip tooth Schwinn at a local antique mall and threw a seat on it and cruised it one time before deciding I hated the front fork and the way it road so I stripped it down and decided to build a klunker. Here are a few shots of it as I changed over a few things. Stripped the red paint and went with flat black then swapped the forx for some Rock Shox and new Haro bars. Also put on some fat Kenda tires and an alloy wheel up front. Rear wheel is chrome with the original New Departure coaster hub. Newer pedals off a Next kids bike and found a Wrights saddle at a yard sale. Still looking for a seat post and gonna call it good for a while. Can't wait to cruise it !!! Thanx for lookin. :)
