this one is a 63 by the SN but I am not sure of the model it looks like a rambler but I am not %100
it definatly spent some time in the sun
 
WOW, lucky doesn't begin to describe this. :shock: Those two speed fire arrows have very nice styling.
 
I'm offering my pick up truck if you need help! :wink: :wink:
 
we seem to get a lot of columbia bikes in these parts, most likely because we are about 10 miles from columbia MFG

thanks for the truck offer Kota & Thaismytruck but I grabbed my brothers for tommorows run

I will take some more pics of them as they come in

Wait a second- so you're in MA too then? Or did Columbia have several plants? I thought the original and only plant was out in Westfield, MA.

LET'S SEE A PICTURE OF THE ATTIC
 
very cool bikes!!! i have a columbia of unknown orgin, probably late 70's; a clipper. just shows that one man's trash is anothers treasure. how did you get the date from the ser#? i got one if you could guess at its age. you'll be getting a pm.
 
If you're lucky enough to score any extra Columbia parts, I could really use a 24" straight bar middleweight frame ( with the built in kickstand) and a set of 26" peaked fenders like the ones in your photo..........
