    1962 Murray Strato Flite?

    Picked up this Murray yesterday. I believe it's a 1962, and most likely a Strato Flite? Serial number MOU 70....200146. It's hard to tell as most of the identifying factors are missing. I'd like to find the tank and bezel for it ... don't care if it functions.

    FOUND Elgin rear Delta Reflector

    Photos are not mine - just an example of what I need to complete a mod/resto. I have Paypal or Venmo for each of our trading safety and I do not mind paying fees.

    1942 Elgin mod/restoration Project

    This past fall, my friend bought a 1942 Elgin at the Royal Oak Swap. I fell in love with it, and had I had a little more cash in my pocket at the time - it would have been mine. In November I found, what I was pretty sure was a 42, for sale about 4-1/2 hours away north of Chicago on Facebook...

    Show me your Roadmaster Shockmaster Fork

    I'm primarily interested in seeing what the bracket looks like for mounting a light (I'm assuming the small, circular bracket, parallel to the fork blades is for mounting a light?)

    1964? Murray Comet VII

    Picked up this Murray Comet VII this weekend down in Indiana. In the process of cleaning off rust I removed the front wheel and was surprised the front fender was not attached to the fork, (and on backwards) and was only attached to the wheel axle. Looks like something is missing from the fork...

    Anyone have a Stimsonite no 15 lens, or a color flow tombstone housing complete with lens? Or, a source to locate? The one I have is just not going to cut it.

    Can axles be swapped?

    is It possible to swap axle and bearings from a vintage front wheel into a modern cruiser wheel? Apologies if this has been answered. I did try and search first.

    This one is going to be a tribute to my son, Airman Georden C Cordle of the Fighting Checkmates of VFA-211 out of Oceana, VA. He and I were going to enter last year as he was not supposed to leave until August. They offered him a bunch of money to join early which derailed our plans. He's always...

    Firestone Warrior Flea Market Find

    Picked up this Firestone Warrior this Memorial Day. It's been painted somewhat sloppily but the bike, overall, looks pretty solid. Not sure how much has been changed as I haven't found too much on this yet. Obviously, the pedals and grips are not original and there are mount holes in both the...
