found 2bikes on CL last night.
One was for sale for 50, I got there, and saw a skip-toothed mans bike, fair condition. Snyder built? I got it for 30.

looks like it HAD a Beehive springer at one time. Anyone with parts to complete this?

found the major part for the front end today, plus a generic Schwinn spring. Will have to fabricate the bushings and pivots. Started tearing it apart. Not sure if im just gonna rat it, flat black with tan tires, or try to restore. Meh!
 
tore into the Traveler today. Gonna put road wheels on it, 10 speed it, and give it to my nephew Ryan. Guess Ill sell the rear wheel 3 speed. No coaster. Works well.
