Found this beauty at the annual swap meet yesterday. Probably paid too much, but it spoke to me...all those old decals are like tattoos on it. Love it!

Been playing with the look a bit...added a rack off an unknown donor bike, and some skirts off an Elgin.
This thing needs alot of work. The bearings are all gummed up and the chain ring is bent...this one's going to have to wait though...school starts again Monday. I'm excited to go back, but I've got quite a few projects that have to get shelfed for awhile...that bums me out

The chain ring is easy to straighten. A good cleaning and a few coats of clear will be all you need. Nice bike!
 
Nice find. I vote leave it as was and make it a rider.
I've always wanted to have one of these frames and have this look. I want to find a tank that fits it and really make a beast of a rider.

It's more of a time thing at this point…nothing will happen with it now until next summer probably.

Thanks for the thoughts!
 
Really? Do you have a pic?

I was going to use it on a frame that didn't have the eyelets so I removed the struts and made new ones that were longer. You can use my threaded rivets to put the old ones back on. It's solid. I figure $15 for the rack and $15 for shipping, more or less. $30 and it's yours. Gary
