My Childhood Nemesis!!

[1918 Ranger]

This bike belonged to my neighbor and friend when we were kids. It was my envy. I thought it was the greatest thing ever and of course I would race against him and it. He recently learned I was in to bikes and he dug it out of his dads garage where it's hung for 25 years.

What have I got other than a Sears muscle bike?

I love this original seat.

Check out the 66 Sears catalog, Sears Spyder Deluxe that cost $39.88.

The seat on this one is in pretty good shape. No tears!

So if its a Spyder I guess it could be worth the investment to restore?????

Ranger this bike is on the low end as far as collectability and would not bring back what you would put into it. The seat is all the money in this bike. It is a cool bike and a repaint and some new wheels would work wonders. You could also make it a 3 or 5 speed too. You can get a guard off ebay at some point. I would repaint it the same color and have fun with it. You have a cool story to go with the bike too.
