How about a Raleigh bike?

I'm looking for 30's-50's and nowhere near 9000 bucks. Daily driver 5 miles to truck 5 miles back once a week.

Hey Dope, I have one of these in original condition. It is brown. Surface rust. Needs cleaned up and repainted. I'm thinking about chroming it. I think its from the 50s or 60s

'70's - '80's BMW is what you want, period. Rock solid reliable and stone simple to work on. Plenty to be had for sub-$3k
