I lived in Wichita over a decade ago. I did not see a whole lot of other riders then. I have found that the suburbs of Kansas City, are gold mine for vintage bikes compaired to Wichita. The crazy thing is when the gas prices went up so did the price of the vintage bikes, but the bikes have continued to stay high.
Thanks, I really think I got lucky with this one. Probably won't get this lucky again any time soon. I have been cleaning this baby up, with Simple Green, and wadded up aluminum foil. I can't believe how clean it is getting. I am going to get some tires tomorrow, put everything back together, and take this baby for a spin. Still trying to think of a name for her. I will post up some shots of her all put back together in a few days. As long as I don't run into any snags.
