This is the disassembled red spitfire.

Ha...classic.

Gotcha. Okay, though I could probably only use the handlebars, gooseneck, and saddle. With that said, my next big question is: do Schwinner’s sand blast, powder coat, and apply Schwinn decals to make their bikes appear new, or do we adore our bikes with all their blemishes and just keep them...
