Got these last night. The only one I was after was the Supergoose frame. I had a '79 regular mongoose when I was a kid, I guess it was the team Mongoose the one that was half only Chromoly. Serial number on the Supergoose is H154541 which I gather is Aug. '81.

The other frame (last pic.) I believe is also a Mongoose frame but newer, only I don't know how much newer. Serial on this one M4K17689, any help with a model name or dating this would be appreciated.

Both frames appear to be in real nice condition but need to be cleaned up.

Serial is definitely mongoose, M3K I think is November of '83. The M is actually not for Mongoose it's the name of the town in Japan where it was made. Madera...manerva...something like that.

It looks a lot like the Mongoose Californian I had, Could also be an Expert.
