Hey guys. New guy here from the LA area. I'm a railroader by profession, but I've always loved making or modifying things. I was never into bikes, but I recently picked up a couple of old schwinns, and now I'm learning as I go. One is a '48 DX, it's going to be a Pee Wee Herman replica, and the other is a 24" Spitfire that I'm resto-modding for a lady friend of mine as a Christmas present. Neither are very ratty, but I hope to build a ratter next. Look for a thread on the spitfire soon.
