put apes on it and a banana seat, maybe a 3 speed with a beer tap shifter Then pinstripe it.

+ 1 on above advice, rebuild the hub with new spring.

i'm thinking 85, or 86. I have an 87 nice bike

call ahead on the bike shop We don't have room to keep them around, but i will save one back if they tell me when they are coming. if they want to charge for the box, go somewhere else (my competitor charges for them) Have the shop save everything from the bike they built, Foam bubble wrap fork...
