They may not be such a great deal after a 5300+/- mile road trip.

What the blank, does it RAIN old red Trek MTBs in the winter out there?
One of them looks like a giant black plum from Journey To the Center of the Earth landed on the saddle.....

Nice score; that top-tube cable routing is sweet. I have one of the later e-stay Impulses; it turns heads, but it set me back more that BOTH of yours. Those are time capsules! I'm sure you know the shifter de-gum-up routine.

Seller says it's a 1954. Raleigh women's superbe, $125.

Another raleigh, hard to tell what it is. I'm guessing a Grand prix? Whatever it is it's only $30.

74 blue Schwinn paramount. My size and I know some of you like this size too. I just don't have the $$$ and I live too far and have no car. It's missing the saddle, bb, and cranks.

Check the ad - quote:
"It used a unique gear system involving turning levers." Interesting description of downtube shifting.

My sister and I were shopping for a new washer today and stopped into a Restore store. Used furniture, old used kitchen cabinets etc. I was surprised to see bikes. Aside from a Schwinn Swidewinder these two Shoguns caught my eye.
I thought they were nicer when I saw the Champion decal but then I noticed the Tourney brakes. It wasn't until I was uploading the pics I noticed the tubing was Champion 5 and the cranks were Tourney as well. Still not bad bikes but $100 ea doesn't leave much room for flipping. Looks like maybe a 20 and 22"?
OH they also had this fabulous old radio. I love it and could care less about the turntable but $150 is too much to see if the radio works.
