Photos of vintage 1970's Columbia road bike
I just sold this 70's Columbia USA for $30 as a as-is/restoration project. The burnt orange color looked very pretty in the sun and the graphics were pretty cool. The bike itself was rusty, tires flat, needed new chain, etc. In the end I said someone might just want it for decoration or someone might be able to make some money if they put it in an antique booth.

I'd happily pay $30 for a bike as yard art but this bike is in too good a shape. I need something that is better rusted out.
