Defiantly vintage and maybe classic to a loving mom.
My .02 - it's fugly.
I try not to call someone's baby fugly, if you can't say something nice, keep yer yap shut. Etc,
But it's fugly. Sorry.
After thinking about it last night, I thought about looking for some Grab Ons for the bike that I ride to ALDI and the brewery or cruise the MUP on. They would appropriate for a bike boom bike such as my Takara. But then I decided I have to agree with you, they wouldn't look that swuft.
But I agree with others that say the OP should do what they want although it wouldn't hurt to see what 40 years of sweat may have done beneath them.
