Love the long stretched out Huffy Wheel bikes, this one looks great!

I don't know, he has other items up on ebay that might be worth the shipping. :headbang: http://www.ebay.com/itm/huffy-stingray-bananabicycles-collectibles-barn-find-schwinn-50-55-58-60-62-64-/112203627457?hash=item1a1fdb7bc1:g:DgMAAOSw5cNYKM9-

Just like most people I can't seem to find time any more but I finally got the seat tube beat into submission and a fender tab welded on. But the paint was something else, the original paint was painted over with two layers of car paint and underneath I found bondo work to deal with. I had to...

Great find, can't wait to see it brought back the way you want. I'm not sure about the Coast to Coast Wheel bikes if they only had the one version or not but Huffy offered two versions of The Wheel bike per their 1969 catalog, the painted fender version had the hockey stick chain guard which is...

Wow CRASH figured me out, so now I'm going to turn the banana seat around and mount the forks on the rear so when I ride it I can see where I've been.:21:

That's too funny, I showed it to my wife and said I bet CRASH, EagleEye, or Jaxon snagged it.

Wow, wish I would have seen it last night when you posted it or knew it was going up. Been looking for one for a while, my white whale.

Glad to see everything got straightened out with your thread! Do you know of anyone or can you find someone local that has an English wheel (metal work or body shop)? With that being aluminum it should roll out pretty well once you get the hang of using it but it would take some practice, plus...

Welcome to the group, we have a great and knowlegeable bunch of guys here! You're first is always the one you love most . . . I mean bike of course :)

Nicely done!

Wow that is beautiful!

Yes a "Top Fueler" drag fork in the build but at the reveal it will have a twist :cool2:

Got some fab work and welding done, working on stripping tonight.

Wow, one of my favorite bikes, great find.

Yeah I got it thanks, after I told you it moved for me I think I just locked it in tighter Haha. At least I won't have to strip the paint off that area, I burned all the paint off with the torch. :bigsmile:

Whew! what a start, I had to remove a rusted in place seat post, after three hours of beating, a can of penetrant, and heating it with a torch I was finally able to coax it out of the frame. Now some repair work is due for the top of the frame seat tube after I bent it up pretty good. Time is a...

Finally 28 days after the MBBO5 start I have the frame I've been looking for thanks to CRASH and a little horse trading of parts, I can start stripping paint and prepping the frame. More parts gathered I needed, gonna be a busy week trying to catch up. Sorry Renaissance Man I was so hyped about...

I finally got to read through LuketheJokers entire build post and I'm just so totally impressed with the whole project, I love the theme and direction it's going. Great job Luke!

Ok, so I was searching for a three tube backbone Rail 1967-69 but settled for a two tube 1970 when I couldn't find one, found out my buddy was looking for a two tube 1970 so we worked out a deal and traded frames, hopefully works out great for the both of us. So I took it to get a price on...

I think it just needs a pair of my Rail tube caps, if you pick it up I'll kick in a pair for the restoration :113:
