My "american" Chopper. Started with a 62 Schwinn American frame and a ratty, rusty, horntank, $40.00. Wheels from a goodwill purchased bike $9.92,the bulk of the rest of the parts were obtained through a barter with Larry the bike guy. Total cost about $150.00 (lots of spray cans)

Hey, Nice bikes! How is bicycle Larry doing? Larry is a great guy, tell him Hello from Don McGee, Kansas City.
 
Cruiser -5

Paint , tires, seat, cables, grips, have all been changed. Fenders were added as they never came with them. Long answer short, no. LOL original color was radiant red and all the schwinn cables were that ugly gray color. The un-relentig sun here in the desert tends to destroy things that stay exposed to it. This model came in Sky Blue and sable Black as well. Later & PEACE!!! 8)
