Hey what's up guys, Picked up another frame. This time off of ebay. Not the best deal but I don't think 35$ is to bad for a bike that I wont be flipping. I have some wheels, tires,bars, and seat ready for this. I am not sure what kind of bike it is but I really dugg the deep curve in the down-tube and the cool angle on the two middle bars.

I'm not the expert, but I agree those dropouts are just like the late 50's early 60's Arkansas made AMF, and the seat stem is the kind that tightens like a handlebar stem, also late 50's/early 60's. I can only see one pic, but the frame looks like a longer version of usual AMF frame. I've never seen a frame like that.

edit: I found one!

Sweet, I was hoping it was a roadmaster! I'm building up a little fleet of them :D
 
Frame cam in today! I am really digging its lines. Over all it is solid, it has a dent on the top tube, but it's nothing that a little bondo can't fix. It looks like the original color was red and at some point, someone spray-bombed it hammered black. I can't wait to get started on this.

Looks like it has the badge still on there. You can probably carefully remove the paint without ruining it.
