Found the frame in a junk pile behind our house one day. The frame was full of spiders, dirt, and wound up with morning glory vines. A couple months in the basement and I finally got inspired to do something with it but made a pact with myself not to spend any $$ on this. Finished it up and have been riding it around town as a grocery getter. Fun bike and fun to figure out the BB situation!
