Restoring some Schwinns
 
my buddy Killmore and I have been restoring some vintage bikes, and right now we currently doing complete repaints and rebuilds of a couple of varsity's and a little girl's bike we are turning into a lowrider. Here are some pics:

where we found Killmore's 71 Varsity (lower left) and his Schwinn cruiser (right)

we might have picked a day that was too cold

Killmore's worked better than mine, I think I need to wait for a warmer day.
We were so excited about fixing those Schwinns, that we decided to take our other Schwinns out for a cruise:

a 71 collegiate, a 64 co-ed, and a 73 varsity.

I will update as we work on the bikes, and all of the pictures can be viewed larger on my flickr page. Thanks for looking.
