[QUOTE=BillK]Any brand/model recommendations? Pictures on eBay don't always include a clear shot of the dropouts, so it's hard to judge vintage.

I went down to the eclectic old shop and dug around in the back. Found a frame for $30. 80's steel lugged Araya. Painted it up and was done. During the bike boom (70's and 80's) there were so many good frames built that a specific brand is difficult. Look for an old racer if possible because the geometry will more aggressive (but not track aggressive). Half the fun is looking.
