I picked up this Murray Cruiser from a guy at work. His Uncle kept getting drunk driving tickets, so he bought this bicycle. Well he also got a drunk driving ticket on the bike, so after that it was left on the back porch. I don't know how old it is, but they haven't had painted fenders for awhile. I'm thinking mid to late 80's. I'm just going to clean it up, and leave it alone.

The Stingray I picked up at the Peddlers swap last Sunday. I've never owned a Shelby bike. I didn't even know they made them. It's in pretty decent shape. I like the Sissy bar. It looks like the chrome will clean up. Today I installed a taller set of ape hangers, the 20" springer, the 82 spoke wheels, and the 20" Kendra flame tires. I have another project to finish before I start on this one.

It was another crappy day in Missouri today. The sun did come out about 5pm, but I had already taken the pictures. I'll be glad when I can take pictures outside again.

Enjoy, Dean

Yea they are. I've never been a big fan of those wheels, but I think they look good here. Just a little info for ya, it'll be painted to match my S10. Dean
 
cool finds. that murray cruiser looks to be either mid to late 70's or early 80's. my 86' monterey has way different badging. nice bike though and looks good as is.

the shelby looks like it has a chainring off a mid to late 60's amf/roadmaster. cwc?
