The reflectors and pedals (with more reflectors) tell me it's a 70's bike. I don't they made a bike like that in the late 80's,could be wrong. It must have been gently used,still having the axle protectors. Cool old Murray. Pat

Totally Cool! That front brake is the most creative thing I've seen,very functional and unique. Fantastic job. Pat

Wow! That turned out nice, the straight-bar bikes just have that tough look to them. What is the decal on the seatpost tube? Show a pic. Pat

Re: Commuter Bike Sharp lightweight,those parts will give it that 50's look. Sears actually had some well made stuff in the 70's, like your bike,but I think it was little known. I remember thinking everything they sold was a Murray. Pat

Try Kano Kroil for rusted,broken fasteners. I've used them all over the years and it's worked best. Try drill ing the fender screw with a smaller size,then run a tap through it. Pat

Respond to his ads,then get a couple of friends together and pay him a visit.I think he'll be willing to return your stuff and not make anymore of it. Know what I mean?

Re: "New" Typhoon Project Looks in good shape,The 2 speeds rock,I have 3.I'd lose the fenders,install a set of red balloons and flip the h/bars.Gives it a tough look,not too good on the back. Pat

Re: TheFlyingDingo's Fresh bikes-New bike(s)-5/16 Hey Dingo, That Schwinn stuff looks better parked @ your house than mine LOL! I kinda miss having them,I'm getting better @ keeping good stock. Do you still have the 20" straight bar Schwinn? I'm interested. Pat
