[Illiterite Wino]

just got in with my second load from my friend's yard with these gems..

any help in identifying some of these would be great

24"

rustbucket, but all still seems to unfrozen and still manageable.. have a hard time with people who use these for lawn ornaments.. but maybe an only option here

love the sprocket on this one.. has really pointy/ridged top fenders as well

i now officially own a Stingray lol

and a mini ray

saw this sitting there looking lonely.. not usually my cup of tea.. but it was still shiny red so.. it had to come with me

and snagged this just for the front end

again.. any help in identifying some of the older models is appreciated.

The rust bucket is a Huffy, the Blue one is an AMF/Roadmaster built '58ish-'63ish. The Mini Stingray chopper forks will accept a 26" balloon tire with a little modification at the bottom of the fork tubes. Great finds!

The red one is a Schwinn with the sprocket, seat, front rim and pedals replaced

 

[Illiterite Wino]

i am still amazed at how you guys can do that lol

still new to this but am picking up pointers daily here....

the red one does have schwinn grips on it, so i was pretty sure it was one
the others i was pretty much lost on

and the boys bike, in the last pic, is done in a Bratz theme :roll:

Big score! The Miyata is my favorite. I'd give you $50 for it. :mrgreen:

I like the rusty Huffy. That's some serious patina.Way cool.

Looks like a Murry I used to have, pulled it out of a basement that used to flood all the time.

i was thinking just clear coat it and put some new tires/tubes and a chain on it and call it a day, it looks like it was red at one time, and someone dumped that green paint all over it

the Miyata is a 110 model from 1989 best i could judge from their catalogs, just pumped up the tires and they hold air, still shifts perfect.. just a wobble on the back rim, loosen the back brake a bit and it should be good to go. The large Stingray pumped up and held air as well.. found a chaingaurd for it on ebay.. may plunge and redo the bike.. like the look and feel, but am embarrassed to be seen on a OCC themed bike lol

Google the Miyata bikes, they were very good quality and reputation. 110 is not bottom of the line, 90 was.

 

[ifitsfreeitsforme]

that Miyata will make a sweet ss

Hey I have the less rusty match to that Huffy! From the small amount of paint on yours it appears to have been the same color also!
