Bikes: A bunch of old bikes and a few new ones

In addition to the ever changing queue of flip candidates, I have projects divided into two divisions.

First major goal is to finish the unfinished project bikes:
  1. Bridgestone RB-1
  2. Motobecane CV-41
  3. Schwinn Prelude 1987 (Pink and White)
  4. Trek 620 - handlebar conversion to native state
  5. Trek 520 - needs everything
  6. Peugeot PKN10 - stuck seatpost
  7. Motobecane Interclub Tandem - remove foam grips and rewrap handlebars.
  8. Retrieve Santana tandem from the LBS, which is removing a seat post broken inside the seat tube, to complete overhaul.

Second major goal of pending projects include:
  1. Build a touring bike for my BFF neighbor in Ann Arbor. She needs a 58cm frame.
  2. Kestrel KM40 overhaul
  3. Klein Stage overhaul
  4. Nobilette overhaul

I bought the pictured below Schwinn Prelude in Palm Beach in August. Besides changing saddle and shorter reach stem, it needs a full overhaul and new consumables. That will be my winter project when I go to visit friends over the winter.
I'm thinking winter may be too short for all your bike projects,
