I want the version where you have to electro-forge the frame together yourself.

That's great. I would never have guessed that a model of a Schwinn Continental existed. There were plenty of motorcycle models and I even got a SkiDoo model once. But I never saw, heard about or even dreamed of a Schwinn Continental model.

I got some left over campus green paint.....

I still think my wife would be mad if I brought home one more bike.

I thought that was a lost art.

I read somewhere that today's heat-tolerant lightweight steel alloys would ironically have been good candidates for electroforging.
