Well Bossman, you know how the story ends. She took it tonight and rode it home. They (girls) love their mixtes. Here's the pics.
you know, I've been watching that Windsor mixte you have listed, and I'm surprized you haven't sold it yeat at what appears to be a giveaway price.

Speaking of which, I hope you hooked her good for that Moto - those don't come around very often....

I'm most of the way through that Regina. It's cleaning up very nice, but needed cables, cable housings, and a FD (Simplex cr@p). All I need do now is polish the wheels, assemble, and adjust.
