Hawthorne Muscle Bike Project

I picked up this vintage Hawthorne muscle bike at a local flea market for dirt cheap and I am working on bringing it back to life. I managed to wrestle the rusty gorilla bars off of it and replaced with a slick low profile race bar from a mountain bike which was parted out long ago. I am going through the process of hammering this old vintage 70s bike back in shape and will update with new pictures soon. Check back on this resto project!
