That green Raleigh is a top-notch specimen.

If you don't get one of these three, use google alerts to help you find another one.

Go to garage sales and estate sales and ask if they have bikes that are not on display. A lot of people don't value these bikes. I got two three speeds for $30 (for the pair!) at an estate sale, and one of them became my pride and joy. Look for my thread entitled 1962 Rudge or something like that.
