HARPO
Cruisin' on my Bluebird
Well, I violated two of my Cardinal rules...wear your glasses when picking up a bike, and don't rush.
This was on Craigslist, and I saw it needed some work. But the guy said he'd take $50 and I figured what the heck. Can't go wrong for that price, right? A little work and it'll look like the rest I contend with. Aye Carumba! A LOT of work!!
The GOOD...low price for a Champion No. 2 frame with decent components.
The BAD...more rust than I had imagined with some chrome loss and more work than I had planned on.
The UGLY...electric tape on the handlebars and all the rust.
So...here are the pics...
