Here it is with a quick clean up, still need to clean the rims. I like the bike more then i thought, i wonder how old it is?? (anybody?)
The only thing i bought was a longer seat post 5$ not bag eh!

I'd bet a dollar to a donut that you could pop the welds loose on those upper tubes at the seat tube. Then bend those bars straight to match up at the seat clamp with the seat stays. Have a welder tack them right there and make a quick double top tube boys bike out of it. The paint would hardly be damaged as well.

Your idea sounds good, but i don't have a welder yet. :? How would you go about bending the tubes while still attached to the bike? :?:
 
Some of the parts kinda look like the ones mine had. it had same fenders but I changed them.
