On these deluxe stingrays, personally I think you've just GOT to run chrome fenders and whitewalls. It just looks so classic! :D

No love for the whitewalls huh.

Ehhh, they're alright more of a PITA issue with me unless you have `em on something you don't care about the looks. Here's my only bike with WWs, no cleaning required.

i get alot of "ya should have sold it on ebay comments, but what do they know. :)
 
I was bored this morning and decided to paint the rear slick, it would look pretty cool if the tire wasn't all cracked and weathered, maybe I'll do another coppertone ray in the future and do copperline tires. My tires and sissybar are coming today so I should have finished pics tonight or tomorrow.

Where did you find that seat cover? I'd like to find a tiger pattern.

$10 pillow cover and a 2 part banana seat. i slimply bent back the taps, to remove the bottom pan. i sprayed the fun fur with contact cement.wrapped the seat, and the bottom pan holds it tight/hides all the edges. nice and clean like. :)

This seat is actually a Troxel, probably more rare than a persons but worth less. The bike would have originally come with a white tufted seat, almost looked like tuck and roll upholstery.
 
Finally got my sissy bar and rear whitewall knobby. I had a heck of a time finding a whitewall front, they've been discontinued. I should have it friday along with finished pics.
