Here she is, in all her '69 steel tube glory. The paint's a little chipped, the rims are roached, brakes are broken, and the chrome needs a spit shine... But HEY! She was only $60!
This ol' girl needs a few new bike parts to make her road worthy along with top of the line color matching for period accurate classy-ness.
I'm building it for my girlfriend who picked the bike out. She has requested about a 40 mile range, which poses some challenges:
1. EVERYTHING seems to be made from non standard parts and measurements compared to contemporary parts.
2. There is a budget of about $1000. Its nice but I can't go hog wild.
3. My GF is picky about how this thing is going to look. I think she wants it to appear like a restored '69 Ladies Schwinn.
4. I'll probably have to modify the bike in some way to fit new parts.
