I started collecting bikes about 8 years ago, at one time had over 45 bikes in my garage, basement and living room until my wife said no more and slowly been scaling back. I collect mainly Shelby's and I have a few Schwinns thrown in. I came across this site looking for Ideas for a '46 Columbia frame I had. I usally keep a bike fairly stock and original but when I get just a frame or rust heep, I can't just leave it alone.
