Misawa Japan. I even posted on Craigslist Japan asking for one but it doesn't really have that much traffic.

Over here it is strange; You would think that in a country with as many bikes as in Japan there would be a ton of used bike stores but utility bikes are cheap and when they break, they just buy a new one. Between they being so efficient at recycling bikes (as in tossed in the spring big-item recycling piles), and that they don't particularly like second-hand items, most end up tossed away before they get a chance to become vintage.
