The frame, fork and seat are so cool, can't wait to see how the fender/skirt guards turn out. I love the fact that you weren't afraid to chop up those parts, somewhere, someone restoring a girl's Higgins is cursing you.

Yes it was it felt like I was committing the Ultimate sin but once I the sparks started to fly it felt so good I couldn't turn back [emoji95] when it was all said and it was exhilarating !!! Lol
Had to make it the same size as the drive side which is smaller .

Well I really wanted to use this dog leg crank it would have been perfect for the swamp dog . The only problem is that it's made by Schwinn & it's to narrow for this frame. it hits the rear of the frame so I can't peddle it all the way around.
Never was a Schwinn fan sorry guys but it to beaten of a path for me . They built great bikes & we're very smart . You don't interchange parts with Schwinn . You must buy there stuff . Even the thread on the crank will only fit Schwinn bushings & nut . So this one drive me nuts and now it's back in the parts pile [emoji35]

Well here is the next candidate on which crank is right. It's got just enough crust on it and I put a 52 tooth snow flake sprocket on . Came off a Ross so it keep it touch with the frame . The swamp dog should have a good top end to it .

You're working those skirts like a seamstress!
