Calaso, that's a beaut.

Haven't been posting much on this thread lately, even though I'm finding stuff, it's just the SOS.

Here's an interesting haul, though. Think it's a sixties Paris Sport, with a weird kickstand-- seem to recall mswankytank having one of these once. The frame is gaspipe (about 8#s) but fairly cool. I bought it cause it's my size and thought it would be fun to play with. Prolly gonna fixie it or singlespeed it or some such abomination, 'cause it's not good enough to restore, and it's rough as is. Make a good beater, and once I get tired of it, I can give it away; it was only 15$ (too much, but I'm a sucker for old French crap) The kickstand slightly dented the stays, and the rear is a bit out of line, but I need some alignment practice anyhoo. Fun!
