I just picked up this truck load from a member. There is a Gary Fisher MTB, a super tall GT MTB, a WCC jesse james bike, a sears 24" nana seat bike, an 18" rollfast, what I believe to be a Columbia Playbike and a totally unknown blue banana seat bike...... All and all a great deal I still haven't unloaded them off my truck but 7 bikes on the back of a jeep.

Save some for the rest of us. My Wrangler hauls bicycles too (unless you get them all). I like the stash you have there. Are you parting any out ?
 
Re: this is a hot mess

Wow you bike hoard you lol,

great lot of parts, frames and extras both older and new style.

what are you planning on building or piecing together?
 
Re: this is a hot mess

That's an outstanding effort! The kind of hot mess we don't mind dealing with!
 
Re: this is a hot mess

I imagine you are going to have a BIG set up in Monson.

Ok so I took some time to unload them off my truck and snap some quick photos here is the first one its a 24" sears 5 speed plenty rusty and missing the shifter ( I need one) I'm thinking of using the front tires off of a OCC chopper on this one front and rear. I'm also looking for any info on this giant I was told its a Playboy? I can't find anything when I search Sears Playboy.

The next one is what I thought was an 18" RollFast it is a 20" but seems smaller then normal. This bike is in great shape, possibly my favorite one of the lot. I wasn't even going to take this one but I sure am glad I did. Here is a pic as found then one with an extra nana seat that came with everything. This another one I know nothing about.

And I have fit 13 bikes in my jeep once all 26" or roadies from a day of yard saleing It helped that the doors were off that day
 
Nice! The sears is a Spyder- I'm pretty well certain of that -and as for the blue 20 inch, I'm pretty well certain that's a Columbia based on the dropouts. Take a look at your brown Columbia with the three speed versus the blue bike- both seem to have the same exact frame... I just noticed that after scrolling between the two for a second. Maybe the blue bike was an older cruiser converted to a muscle bike? Great lot, they look like they have some potential. :D
