Had to work late, and pissed off taking the long way home around construction. I see this bike out the corner off my eye leaning on a tree with a sign, 50.00. A closer look and some cell phone internet, and verified!!! Deal. 1941 columbia in pretty damn good condition. Apparently I was the only person interested so the wife made him gimme the chopper too.
Score!!!

The chopper's interesting too. Best of luck with them.
You scored big time!
I hope someday to get at least one bike from the family farm. There are about 7 skiptooth bicycles hanging on the back wall of the tractor shed. I have no idea what brands though....

The biggest problem is the 20" front wheel, it just pancakes(lays over) when you turn. Originally it had 20's front and back and shopper bars leaned way forward. All the bike geometry was completely messed up.
I had to replace the bars with MTB bars and put 24" on back and 26" upfront. IT CAN BE RIDDEN NOW, still wont turn very well. but I guess thats just a chopper thing.
