Help me choose a retro full suspension bike…………..

If it were me, I'd go with the 657 all the way, as long as you're not going to be gnar-ing too much shred.

I'd also put in a shout for a 1997 - 2000 Marin FRS (Mount Vision, Rift Zone, East Peak etc etc) if the 657 doesn't work out. I love mine, and they're very versatile bikes.

Myself I have an urge to build up a GT RTS, ideally one of the purple ones...
 
If you want different, there's an LTS on ebay at the moment that has been converted to a different rear shock arrangement - with a home-made linkage and lower shock mount. Not sure I'd be wanting to ride it...
