Bikes: Redline Mono-cog converted to BMX cruzer, 79 Peugeot single speed, Fuji s12-s single speed, Centurion Ironman single speed (see a pattern?)

These bikes were pumped out in the 60's by the truck load, I'm not sure who exactly made the frames but many of these bikes were labeled for Sears, Montgomery Wards, and other private store brands. I used to have a Wards bike that looked just like yours but my buddy had the same exact bike labled western flyer sold in western auto stores. The chain ring and dropouts are a dead give a way. Looks like it's been crashed pretty bad. Not a particulary valueable bike but can be cool. I've seen a lot of people put on a generic wald straitght fork, bmx bars and stem, and alloy wheels w/ a free wheel and make cool bmx/old school cruisers.
