what should i do with it?
 
I think I'd Let the cops know what I found before I did anything with it, just in case it was reported stolen.

Some kid mighta lost his only wheels.

Nahh, just grind serials and repaint!
 
Here is the same tube cut at the middle. Move the right side to the left and it changes from an "S" bend to a "C" like bend. This will need just a little bit of stock added to reach the seat post (the missing part is in white).

Randy did something like this with one of his once -

Peal off the decals (or not) & put it on Craigslist for at least $100 as a "vintage classic from the '40's or '50's"
That's what they seem to do around here...so many idiots trying to pass turds off as treasures, the only good deals are at vintage bike shows!

You got yourself what I call a "no-locker", a bike u don't have to worry about, but yeah, you're only a couple of welds & a rattle can away from a decent manly rat ride...good luck
