To tell you the truth, one image entries are the easiest for me... BRQ, I have a hard enough time getting entries with images that are anywhere close my preferred 800-1000 pixels wide.

After much work (12 hrs just for the chain) I got it running. Now its painted gloss black with gloss red rims, I cut the pink handlebar rubber off, and am in the process of making a red vinyl seat cover. Excellent bike overall.

Love your old Fuji--in the seldom seen and not so popular yellow. (why, I don't know....I love yellow!) Old yellow Schwinn's I have seen many, but for some strange reason I rarely come across yellow bikes of any other make. Maybe, it's just me. A nice bike with a lot of sentimental value...priceless.
