I am posting this for a friend that has not setup an account here yet, but he soon will. he got this 60s Schwinn from a friend for free so he decided to clean it up and make it look cool. most everything was seized up and extremely hard to break it all down so he decided to just leave it the way it was but freshen it up..it did not have a chainguard on it so he found one he had laying around and painted it red, then weathered it all over and clear coated it.. got some nice new tires and cleaned everything up real good on it and turned out real cool. heres how it looked when he first got it
here it is done
