Rebuilt MTB.
 
Hey all! This is a old bike that i found by a dumpster that i rebuilt. I wasnt thinking and didnt take any before pics. Just imagine the worst and thats was it. Couldnt even see any chrome on the rims of this bike , it was that bad. Still not finished i want to replace all cables and derailers but i have to wait a while. This is what i have done so far.

I like the color its loud. Thought of going black but it was black(with two tone RUST) when i found it. So i thought that it needed a new look. Im over 6' so it doesnt fit me as well as i'd like. Might put it in the yard sale this summer. Not my best work but im a little rusty myself lol:D ;)

Looks like fun.

That bike probably doesn't deserve the work you put into it, but it does look good.

Rebuilding bikes is so fun :) Especially when you pull them from a dumpster/trash can :)

Looks good. I recently did a rebuid on a bike I got from Play it Again Sports for $10. To me just what I learned from working on it was worth the money I put into new parts for it.
