the bike restoration (lots of huge pics)
From this thread: http://www.bonnevilleclub.com/forum/...ic.php?t=97973
I bought this thing for $10 and so far I have spent $5 on a can of new metallic blue paint. I'm not gonna explain much, pictures should speak for themselves.

I need to buy a new chain for it and it should be ready to sell.
How much you think its worth? $50?...$75?

Awesome job. I'm going home next weekend after finals and bringing my old bike back to school. Need to start using it again with current gas prices.

haro everything you touch seems to turn to gold!! whys that lol but the bike looks real nice you should be able to get atleast 50 i would guess. Maybe you could find the stickers that go with that bike and put them on?

good point! I dont know abotu around you but around me when people steal bikes that take all the stickers off and paint it up. So thats where that comment came from. People might think you stole it or something. thats all

Very nice! I used to work as an assembler for Toys R Us a while back and getting that style of brakes set up right can be a bit of a pain...
Overall, the bike looks really nice! I think you should ask $75 and haggle from there, but don't let it get away for anything less than $50
