So I don't really have any idea what model or year this schwinn is but I like it compared to most ladies bikes. I think it's a spitfire anywhere from 50's-60's. My girlfriend wanted one of those cheap beach cruiser bikes from wal-mart but I told her I would build her a real bike if she wanted one.
So far I've just stripped the paint and started collecting parts. The plans are to paint it the original style but in a light blue. I'll start taking better pictures now that I've got a build thread going, but for now here is what I have.
After I stripped the paint I took it to the car wash and sprayed it down along with a few other future projects
The plan is to have this thing done by christmas for her, but I only have about 10 days to actually build it. I'll probably start posting updates almost everyday until I have to go back to school for finals.
