I posted this in another thread of pics from Detroit Autorama, but I think it's crazy enough to be worthy of it's own thread.
I don't know anything about it, other than it was in the bed of a '60's Ford Econoline pickup belonging to a local artist/pinstriper named Jeff Shea--I don't know him & didn't talk to him, just snapped a few lousy (sorry) pics.
Maybe someone here can tell us a little more than I can...Looks like the main donor bike is/was a Huffy, the tires I think are Bontragers & that's all I can tell ya. Nice truck BTW, I wonder how many bikes it holds...

Dig the saddlebags...from an import cycle maybe? Whatever they are, I want some! :mrgreen:

Just your typical wrought iron & pipe luggage rack... :wink:

Is it a swing bike? or does the fork turn, too? Is it even rideable or does it exist purely as sculpture? I dunno...

I have never ridden a full size swing bike but should be much different. I don't think the extra weight will matter as you are not sitting over the rear wheel.
