You might even enjoy it!! Looks like a great project for rainy days when you cant ride... Just my opinion...
I'd be glad to take it but you are at least 4 hours from me and i don't need a project THAT bad!!
Still trying to get the Schwinn back togeher for my boy. Heck it took me 6 months to replace the wiper motor on my vette to get it inspected!! it just sat and sat... Can you tell i love to ride my bikes??!!

From all the feedback, I will make a go of it. Even the wife has stopped laughing and told me she would help me clean it up. Got a mini-vaction this week. When I get back, going to take it to one of those self-service car wash place, and blast it with some hot soapy water. There is a guy close by that knows about bikes, see if can get him to show me a couple pointers on dismantling this thing..There is about 10 out a 100 that I make it with this bike. Would love to get it powdercated red.
