Ross-built muscle bike

[ParkRNDL]

A friend's dad is cleaning out the garage to sell his house. The friend showed me pics of a bunch of bikes and asked if they were worth anything. I asked them to put this one aside for me.

Fork crown, frame design, head tube/headbadge holes, sprocket, and serial all suggest Ross built.

That sticker on the seat tube says Golden Isles Hot Rod, which gets no Google hits, so I have no idea.

After picking at the tape on seat a little, it says RALLY with a pair of crossed flags. A Google search for "rally banana seat" gets me pics that suggest that was a Sears accessory.

I have some Ross bits and pieces in the boneyard that will help me start getting this together.

Yep, looks like a Ross to me too. Looks like cool project.

That's right, Ross. That bike has numerous features, dropouts, 3 holes in the headtube, bottom bar on the bottom bracket, R serial number showing the year. The paint on yours looks pretty good.
