Mike,
This was posted in the for sale section on 11-10-16. Just bumped again today.

I know, but as a lot of all his 28" bikes. Can't swing that, so wanted to show interest in case he decides to break it up

Best of luck. He's a really good guy to deal with. If he does but won't ship, I'm about 30 miles away and could help ship. Give him a call and see.

Pope???

Amazing bike and amazing job rescuing the paint!

Does anyone else think that looks like a Schwinn fork? Are the top and lower horizontal tubes the same diameter?

Was the crank stamped?

Diggin' this Schwinn-Built !!

Trumpet-mouth fittings fore and aft
on a one-inch o.d. undertank tube ...
AND the fore trumpet-mouth aggres-
sively placed within the headtube /
downtube junction ....

WOW --- just beautiful !!

Now ... about that chainring ... Miami ...
Hudson, specifically.

As much as I think the ring looks kool
on this machine ... I would find a more
appropriate ring.

Am keyboardin' on wife's 'puter ... do not
have access to my picture-folder, but I
believe a Schwinn, 6-torpedo ring from
the era of 1916 thru 1918 may be appropriate.

Am really in murky water when it comes to i.d.
of the possible era of the ride.

Generally ... that bicycle design would be near-
impossible to find, again -- as a Schwinn-Built.

Sheeza beauty .........
