I'm slowly reviving this thing. After some research, I think it was made in 1973 or so.

I put on some new tires and checked over all of the hardware. I also learned that 26" in 1970 <> 26" today. I thought they looked a little big for 26!

I think I've gathered all of the necessary parts to get it shifting again, that will be the next step.

No one ponied up the $20 and IPAs, huh?
I did, but not to torture it at wildcat or set it on fire. I'm fixing it up for the Mrs, and if she doesn't wind up using it I'll auction off the rights to take it on a Creek run.

Don't piss off the red guy
Rear brake cable routing looks like an afterthought and a trip hazard. Maybe a few more zip ties will fix that.

New cables are on the to-do list. I need to pick up some old school cable clamps to keep it in place.

It's not as bad as the photo makes it look (as far as tripping).
