Pics of my commuter(s)
Yes I know that there is a sticky for this but its so full I decided to just post mine on my own thread.
Hope you like them.
My 30 year old Columbia bike:
UPDATE!!! THIS BIKE IS FOR SALE!!!Click the 'For Sale' section.
My 7 year old Pacific bike, made into a lowrider by me. Its still half covered in primer:
And then an old Nishiki bike:
Have any questions just ask me.

Isn't that a C-10 or is it the C-15(4x4). I had a budy that owned a couple custom c-10s one was made into a dually so I guess it was a custom custom c-10.
There was a Nishiki mountain bike in the local craig's for $45, but the guy didn't know enough about it. To far to drive to check it out. Now I'm picking up a mid 90's Cannondale M1000 on Thursday.

Looks like a 70-71 C-15 CST Serria 4x4... The large hubs,eight lug wheels are 4x4 only...The trim is CST (Custom Serria Trim),The fuel tank filler door like that was only availble in 70-71, 67-69 was just a hinged door,not the lockable one.
Nice bikes by the way

Earlier today when I posted that I realized/forgot their were c-10 & c-20s. Just missed-catigorized them with the little chevy s-10 and gmc s-15s. But you're right it's a c-20. I didn't give it much thought with 8-lugs and step sides.
Yeah, that fuel door was definately added on recently. They wouldn't use screws that would rust.
