Strato Flyer

[aka_locojoe]

A nearby town has it's City-wide garage sale starting today. I just happened to be off work. We decided to see if any were even open since it's raining. I found this first thing. It's a Western Flyer - Strato Flyer. Stopped looking after this though as the rain got worse.

Wow..what a find !
Two racks...gorgeous tank/light..sooo nice !
:mrgreen:

 

[Markm]

SWEET!!! Is that a beer holder in the rear rack?

 

[aka_locojoe]

Right now the plan is to just clean it up. May replace the wheels/tires. It's pretty rusty.

Don't know what that hole in the back rack is for but beer holder is the first thing I thought of.

 

[ratdaddy]

here's my guess...you put your basketball/football/soccerball in the hole and run a bungy over the top.

Yes. I believe the Spaceliners and all of the knock-offs were made by Murray.

aka_luckyjoe!!! Very very nice!

I tore it down today to clean it. Before reassembling it back to original I left it stripped and stuck some 2.125 tires on it. Speaking of the tires... these are Kenda Flames I ordered from their sale/closeout page. They don't match! Notice the front has big white lettering and the back doesn't.

nice work Randy..
That Bike looks cool, even when it's naked :mrgreen:

The Frame sweep is great on those models,
