Get a rack for the back of the Bug. If you could find an old style one it would look cooler. Is that Krate an Orig or the ones Schwinn repoduced a few years back?

Repop's are cool too. I have a small fleet of Stingrays and other Musclebikes. I have an Orange Krate repop. It's cool

If it's an orig Apple Krate and not a Repo you could get more. Just a thought.

Yeah thats a repop. $350 is not bad. My Orange Krate is a repop. It's fun to cruise on. If you don't need the $ you should keep it. Get alot of looks riding it.

I like the muscle bikes OK , but I would rather ride my'53 Panther. The muscle bike to look out for is the Grey Ghost. Very sought after.
