Memories...Memories...Memories


You know you have something special when a husband brings in a bicycle to restore because, "It is the only thing left from my wife's childhood."  This little pixie isn't really collectable; but to the couple who brought it in, it is priceless.  Paul was pleased to be able to help with this very special Christmas present!


Here's what this little 70's Pixie looked like this when it came in...





Everything was rusty, and we couldn't save the fenders...we cleaned, scrubbed polished...

When we got to the saddle - we got out the repair kits, stencils & paint...



Replaced all the bearings and grease, and put her back together...and VOILA!

We think it will be a VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS!
