Spaceliner Boardtracker

[schwinnmesa]

It started with a molested frame I found at the scrapyard. With the seat post and seat hardware welded two inches back, it couldn't be a better candidate for a boardtrack project. 8) This bike didn't take very long to build.

Before (on Friday):

After (on Monday):

The pedals, grips, and handlebars are off from a prewar Excelsior and the wheels were found at the scrapyard last year. Rides like a dream! This bike will be featured in my "scrapyard documentary" in which as an experiment I'm documenting scrapyard visits every single day for at least a month. I happened to stumble upon this bike on Day 1. :lol:

Very nice find, some Jerald slicks in the back would be awesome. 8)

Thanks!

Can anyone tell me the difference between a Spaceliner and a Flightliner?

 

[scrumblero]

the flightliners have the lower tubes from the downtube to the seat mast, the space liners have them from the head tube to the seat stays, and the cosmic flyers run them from the headtube to the rear dropout.

WAIT!
Does that sticker say Murfreesboro TN?
That seatpost mod may be the earlier work of Smoopy or Gaskill!! :mrgreen: :shock:
You could have a collector's item on your hands. :mrgreen:

Slick ride dude, those pedals are awesome!
