Since I started late yesterday, I will make a longer post today. The next few bikes contain mostly original parts.
This Sears Free Spirit which was built by Schwinn is my second favorite after the Schwinn Thrasher.

This beautiful bicycle has thick, heavy, stainless steel rims and was built to last forever. I polished all of the stainless steel including the handlebars, rack, fender supportsn and rims. I washed everything really well before reassembling the rack and femders. I cleaned the tires, and waxed the entire bike except for the rims, brakes, and drivetrain. Unfortunately, It can still use some work in repairing, or replacing the hub in the rear wheel.
The next bike is a Specialized Hotrock(?) I have before and after pictures. take notice of the handlebars and wheels.

What a difference, leaning, polishing, and waxing can make an old. worn-out bike look like new!
