Default Wanted: Frameset Buying Advice in Boston Area

I recently moved to the Boston area from Minneapolis and I could use
some advice on buying a frameset for my fiancee. I'd like to set her
up with a good quality, older steel frame, but I haven't had any luck
looking in the Globe or at any of the Belmont-area bike shops that
I've been to. I did the same sort of thing for myself a year ago in
Minneapolis and had good luck at a community bike shop that sold used
bikes and at an auction of impounded bikes run by the police
department. Are there any similar places (or other good venues to
search) in the Boston area?

Thanks,

John
