I picked this bike up about half a year ago, put some newer schwinn fenders on it, and threw it in the back of the garage. Now that I'm clearing stuff out, I'm looking at it more and more often, and I can't decide what to do with it. First of all, I completely forgot that it was a skip tooth bike. Would anyone be able to tell from the frame style who made this thing and how old it is?
AND what should I do with it? The frame size is perfect for my girlfriend, but she already has her stingray... and I've always wanted to chop up a frame and modify the heck out of it. Resto-cruiser or ratted out chopper/bobber??
The pictures make it look better than it actually is... My dad said he'd buy it off me and use it as "backyard patina art", and I just couldn't let that happen.
Ideas?? Suggestions???
(Ithought the red tires were totally cool too. Too bad they don't make 'em anymore.)
