The Breeze I bought for no reason, ended up selling the clear reflector pedal and will be giving the bike to a friend.

This 3 spd Raliegh I just bought at the swapmeet for the wheels. But off course I made the rookie mistake and did not look at the tire size. Darn English sizing. It has cool fenders.

Here's a couple I think I missed...
Started out as a newer Schwinn we bought at Target. I think all we reused was the frame and we had it powder coated. Dyno seat, fenders, basket and bars are from Nirve and or Electra (can't recall). Profile chain ring, heavy duty spoked black rims, painted a layback seat post off a trashed bmx.

My Murray Meteor Flite. Not sure of year, hub says '57. Picked 'er up at a animal shelter fund raiser/yard sale for 10 bucks!![/img]

1952 Schwinn Hornet

Here is my beautiful 52 schwinn hornet made in march of 52.
Baught her at the fleamarket last year, the guy said he baught it for his daughter in the 60's she rode it a little bit and he put it in the barn and it wasnt touched till he cleaned his barn last year, he said he put some air in the tires and thats all it needed to make it ridable after that many years! i got the original horn to work, and the headlight alothough i dont thing its original. I love this bike, even the tires are original, but falling apart there so dried out. Here she is.

Thanks Douchbag Derek! haha thats what i call him he calls hes friend derek that i think ill give him that name.
 
The Ladies Raleigh that I purchased looked familiar to me and then remembered my mom had one of the same color. Showed the pic to my dad and he said looks like it. I asked him where they purchased the bike and he told me "Bucky's" in Caldwell,ID which matches the sticker on the bike.

I found all this out after I had started taking it apart. Probably more coincidence than the actual bike. Kinda of cool. At least I have a picture. Wheels are onto the next bike.

I just laced a pair of velocity deep Vs to a sturmey 3 speed coaster and slapped them on a breeze of mine. The only tires I had on hand was 700 x 23, I need to get thicker rubber for it. It needs a washing too, I think it's last cleaning was back in '97.
