Hey, I came across this site about a while ago and I’m really getting into it. I’m a central cali native living in Selma, CA. I’ve been into custom bikes since I was young, I started off with lowrider bikes before I could drive and then let it go while I restored my 62 mercury comet. Well I don’t have the car anymore and about 6 months ago I sold my motorcycle and I needed a new hobby and got back into bikes and now I’m a total addict. I have four old Schwinn/Huffy frames I’m building up, two 24 inchers for my wife and sister in-law, a 26” for myself and a sweet 16” that I picked up on ebay (I’ll post more pics soon). I also bought a chopper style bike just for the fun of it. I’ve recently posted on CL hoping to find local people who are also into this hobby, I’ve gotten a couple of responses but not near what I was hoping for. Anyhow I’m looking forward to being part of the site and really looking forward to posting in the classified section. If your local email me at [email protected] or look for at the Selma auto swap meet March 1st, I’ll be the big guy buying all the bike stuff.

Thanks, I found the bike on ebay, the guy selling said he had found it in a box an old store. He said it was packed flat and couldn’t find the box that had the bars, seat, pedals. Any how I really liked it and how original it looked so I bought it. Other than the missing parts and a few scratches it’s in great shape, the cranks appears to be stuck but I think I just need to re-grease all the bearings. I’m really hoping to find some parts on this site for it.
