Here is the 1970 Stingray Deluxe I picked up a few weeks ago with one of my friends (also a member here) We split the cost and bought 2 identical bikes. One being a January '70 and one being a December '69. Mine being the 70. So far, i've really been just cleaning bits up, repacking bearings, and cleaning chrome. Still need to clean the crank, sprocket, sissybar, and the rear wheel. Or just replace the rear wheel altogether...

Anyways, here's what everybody really cares about...

As bought, with its twin.

Hope you like it! replacing the seat is in the works! let me know if you have a red schwinn seat.
 
The original gripper slick? I still have it, yeah, but the original schwinn tube (which was holding air btw) was busting through the side of the tire. Its too dry rotted to save...
