Scored a GT similar to my teen bike!

A super nice find.....I worked in shops in the 80s and 90s and it was really awesome seeing all of that stuff new.....The GTs and the Haros seemed to be the biggest draw....I have also liked chrome bikes too......You can go to a hardware store and probably find the exact replacement allen bolts for Your stem.....they are probably an "American" size...Good luck on Your future projects!!!

I would go to Landis at least one a week after school to drool over all the anno parts and cool stuff in the mid 80s. What an amazing time seeing all kinds of new stuff regularly.

Ok took some new pics and they seem to be uploading. The blue infill on GT and cranks was there. Appears the cranks were gold but it came off just by cleaning. Some residue in crease of arms. Rims got their blue back with some scrubbing and that car trim stuff that brings color back.

Lol. Thanks, yea I was pretty shocked. It was an older hispanic couple that looks like they just buy yard sale stuff and flip. They seem to place a bunch of ads all the time.
