1975 Schwinn Hollywood

[L.I. Steve]

I have recently gotten into older bicycles. I got my first bike at a yard sale last summer and have wanted share this and my other bikes but have not had time to post anything... until now. I wanted to get an older bike with fenders and fix it up. Well, Murphey's law, I found a solid bike but it was a girls bike. 1975 Hollywood. I paid $40 for it. It is all original (refectors, hand grips and basket). I got it home and cleaned the rust off, cleaned the frame (didn't touch the paint) and spec'd out the right size tires on line. After a few weeks it was on the road. I think it came out pretty good for a first time build. Let me know what you think!

I have always loved that style of handle bars. Looking really good. Keep it up.

Looks nice, Steve. I've never been one to care if it was a girl's or boy's bike. I say save all of them, that's one less I'll have to save. Thanks, Big Moe Welcome to the CABE
