dug out the ol Stingray

[flying eyeball]

I got it when I was 5 or 6yo...78 or 9

I added the team cycle stuff in 83 or so.

How did the frame get chromed you ask?? :wink:

Mom worked at a Chrome Shop and she got it done as a 10th b-day present for me.

It's been collecting dust for years

When I get some $$ I'm hoping to change it up a little and get it ridable again.

Any ideas for some inexpensive cranks?







Thank you for looking 8)

cool bike and cool story! - it looks more like a Murray based on the rear dropouts than a Stingray. Either way, awesome looking!

Very COOL!

What's weird is the small European looking BB...thus the cottered cranks.

Very cool piece of history though....I'd probably hesitate on changing it up.

Cool bike! I did the same thing (minus the chrome frame) to my cantelever huffy around the same time period.
