I had a great swap day yesterday; got to talk bikes with some fellow RRB members, sold a few things, bought a few things and even came home on the plus side with money in my pocket 8)
Some Wald bars, drop center hoops and Columbia repop tires for a future build.
This was a last minute impulse buy- '67 Playbike "88" in the less often seen blue.
This is the one that kept me up most of the night before the swap. This is the first bike that I saw when I entered the building to load in Saturday night and I couldnt get it out of my head. I sold a couple of bikes very quickly so I decided to pull the trigger. This is more or a resto project than I usually take on but it was just too cool to pass on. Lots of wrong parts but the important ones are there and I already have the correct fenders and forks. Anyone that has any input on what the rack, sprocket and bars(whizzer?) are would be greatly appreciated.
As found-
Washed and some junk removed. I aired up the tires and got to go for a quick spin before it gets torn down
