1948 Schwinn Girls DX- Build Complete (Our Own Hardware Badge)

[Christopher]

I just finished with this build just in time for my finance' birthday next week. The before pictures are long lost on a broken phone, but let's just say it was a rust bucket with good paint and bones. I couldn't save the rims and spokes and it didn't have a light or rear rack, so those are all repops, outside of that she's all original.

Another craigslist gem!

Nice job....I love it when what looks to be a pile of junk to some people ends up as a beautiful classic ride.

Al Gore is always pontificating about recycling and from what I have seen here over they years, us old bike people are the world's best recyclers. I think he should send us some of his millions $$$$ to help us along with our projects.
