Love this thread!!!


Here is my Schwinn DX as it came from the neighbors farm (it was his older brother's bike in the late 40's). I have it all stripped down now and a buddy offered to powder coat it for me at cost, but I really want to leave it rusty. I like the looks of the satin clear poly. Just got ot figure out how to prep it for spraying.
