I found four old bikes in my Mom's garage two weeks ago and then found your forum with its cool topics and pics. I want to learn more about vintage bikes and bike hobbyists, find a good home for these bikes and/or bike parts I found, and make some cash in the process.
My favorite bike was my early 80's California Mongoose that I got as a gift (used) in junior high and sold a few years later to a guy who had a son a few years younger. I know it is a BMX and not a Rat Rod, but it was pretty sweet, trust me. I haven't ridden bikes much since then.
I hope you guys will help me figure out what I found in Mom's garage. The bikes were there before she bought the place in 1974. I have already done some major Internet research, including lots of cool info from this site! Thanks! 8)
