Barnfind 1941 Schwinn B-model straight bar done!

[PlasticNerd]

So I got the bike a couple weeks ago in Lodi California. Talk about crusty!! There was 1/2” of dust and dirt on all the top surfaces!! Was gonna leave it as found, but I could bring myself to do that!!!! So after 30 plus hours of soaking, washing, polishing, ultrasonic cleaning and reassembly here it is!!

I have to see if I can find a red lens, I’m still cleaning it up it had a hornets nest inside it full of mud and hornet carcasses LOL

Lol I had cantilevers on my mind this morning I was working on one and I’m trying to sell a frame but there’s no interest so I think I’ll restore it thanks for catching that for me lol
