Intense One

I live for the CABE
Here's a 1965 Schwinn American I recently picked up in a local town. Sadly, this bike suffered a hard life for only being a mid sixties bicycle. I have my work cut out to get it rideable again.

Wow! The patina on that thing is absolutely gorgeous. You don't see to many that look that nice.

Post some pictures of what it looks like now.
Here you go, Dan. Went with s2 rims and 2.125 tires and a 3 speed Shimano hub. Found a pair of chrome fenders and bobbed the rear. I slapped on a little rust extender to give it that apocalyptic look and flipped over the bars. I love it and have ridden it quite a bit. I like how the front springer works, too.
 
That’s cool! I like your choice of the S2’s and how they fill up the fenders. The black rims definitely add you it’s attitude too!
