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)
where I found my 73 Varsity
Our Varsity's almost ready to be stripped
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.
