Here's my latest. I got this from a friend who had owned it since the early '80's. Six years ago he started fixing it up for his nephew. They blew it apart, painted it, mocked up the front end and wheels... and then put it out in an old tin barn, that, fortunately :D LEAKED! That's where it sat until this weekend he contacted me to see if I wanted it.
It's a '70's Columbia Coyote.
Total Cost:
Bike, Forks, Seat, Cranks and chainwheel: Freebies
Wheels and tires: Had on hand.
Tube: $8.00
Master link: :1.00
PB Blaster: $5.00
Chain: Scavenged from my junkpile.
Bottom Bracket: Scavenged from my junkpile.
Headset: Scavenged from my junkpile.
Pedals: Scavenged from my junkpile.
Grips: Scavenged from my junkpile.

FRESH OUT OF THE BARN!

Nice! Been wondering if anyone had ever done a full rat lowrider...

Luke.

Completely on accident! Besides, it matches my truck!
 
Cool! :mrgreen: Great find... and I like the treatment.

Barn finds ROCK!
 
Now, THAT’S a cool $14.00 investment!
