Roadmaster Avenger 3 - 3 speed

Here's a bike I just picked up and restored which means I cleaned it up using all the original parts. I saw this one on Craiglist in Scranton PA a few weeks ago and the seller said he was willing to meet me at the pa/nj border with the bike so I ran out there to get it and of course I sat in hours of traffic on route 80. In the end the trip was definitely worth it because I think the bike cleaned up great.

Here's a picture as I got the bike and then a few all cleaned up.

1972 Penny's Apollo 5 Swinger

Here's a bike I built from the frame up. I was hanging at a friends house and he gave me this frame to hang on the wall in my bike room, however I had always wanted one of these bikes so I decided to see if I could gather up enough correct parts to build a complete bike. As luck would have it, I quickly located a parts bike on craiglist that I was able to use the seat, sissy bar etc from and my friend sold me the rest of the parts I needed to complete the bike. I'm happy with how it came out...I love bringing these old bikes back from the dead.

1973 Apollo Racer

Here's a bike that was bought off of the NY Craigslist by a friend of mine on Long Island. My friend turned around and sold the bike to another friend of ours in California. A few months later my Long Island friend bought the bike back from our friend in Cali and then my Long Island buddy sold the bike to me hahaha. So the bike travel 6000+ miles to end up 40 miles from where this whole odyssey started.

1972 Columbia 3 Speed

Here's one that I found when I went to a guys house to pick up a set of tires. He had a lot of balloon tire bikes and just this one muscle bike sitting in his garage. When he offered it to me , I initially declined and headed home with the tires only, but couldn't get the bike out of my head so I ended up calling him a few days later and asking if his offer still stood and when he said yes I ran back over there and grabbed the bike. The bike is very minty and all original.
