Wow Flip! It's apparent you've invested a ton of man-hours there! Well done! I like how you chose to put the Schwinn decal back where it would have been on the top bar originally. I think I would have made the mistake of trying it on the "tank" area. I like it.
i saw some very awesome bikes here. some blew me away. i didn't however see any of the little guys, so i thought i would post a few pics. unfortunately i couldn't find where to upload the pics milt

The only ones I still have are the klunker project, my fiance's hollywood, and the two tire hangers and I might be getting the last two soon. They are out there if you know where to look. I will say 90% of them were from the scrapyard or trades on Craigslist. Also all of those except the Predator are from the last 3 years. :lol: I've been fixing and flipping bikes for the last 20 years so there have been MANY more.
Just bustin on ya brother! :lol: I have found quite a few myself including a 51 Black Phantom I'm working on now. They are out there, you just have to be vigilant on that Craig's list!
