So I bought this locally over CL over the phone with the help of paypal. I'll pick it up tomorrow as I have promised the Boss a bike free evening tonight. How did I do? What am I missing? Where do I start? Whaddya think?

Re: My First Sting-Ray in years and years... its a basket case!
I think you SCORED!!! shifter alone is worth more than you paid for the bike.

You don't want it I'll take it jk but anyways that is a good deal, that is in better condition than my two frames plus you have a rear wheel and shifter which would also cost more than $60 each or at least the ones I have seen for sale.

If you need a 20" chrome S7 rim, PM me. I have one loose and one with spokes and hub. Better condition than your bike and cheap.

Just got it home. He had a few more parts laying around. The trike and the Wards speedo I picked up at good will. I pulled the truss rods and the near perfect Union pedals off the trike. Pretty happy with the haul!

It's Stik Shift Sunday! Got home turned on CL saw this one. Walked right back out the door. Picked it up. Met Clunk509 for a deal. Back home. Long day. Also, bought a ridiculous oversized toy pony for my GF. It cost a buck.

Ditto....thats a massive double score if I say so myself!
I just got a 5 speed stingray myself but paid a little more than you did. Wish mine had all those extra parts!

I see you have learned the "If I get her something too she won't get mad at me for dragging home more bikes" trick. Well played sir. :wink: :mrgreen:

Just a quick update. Got a wheel and tire and a ridable seat that matches the condition! Threw a couple other parts at too like an early pearsons stamped square back sissy bar. Needs a chain and a couple cables and should be good to go! I'll probably do a few laps then put it in the F/S section!
