Picked up this silver king on Monday. Added the whitewalls yesterday and took it for a ride. Rides nice!

Been waiting for this bike to be shipped to me for a year. Finally got her in and honestly, I left work immediately and started cleaning/putting her together. She was pretty dirty but she's cleaning up nicely. Paint is in great shape except for a few inches of the front fender. Someone put house paint in an area so I figured she'd been all banged up and chipped. I've been very carefully removing it and it appears the majority of the original paint is under there.

I'm only going to give you all a tease of some in process pics and not the full bike.... because her back wheel is with Sam for some fixing right now, I'll share her completed when I get that back.

Haven't dated her yet, but she's between a 48-50 Columbia 5 Star Superb. I'm tickled pink. I can't wait to go for a ride!

Wow, a year to be shipped! Did it come from a guy in Switzerland?
