[heyslugger]

I believe that one falls squarely in the Timeless Classic catagory, Gary.

All my purchases have been less than $100 . These two I bought as a "bundle" for $45.The Dyno Glide Deluxe is one of my favorite bikes.

The Western Flyer ten-speed was $10. I have ridden it a lot.

The Huffy Good Vibrations was $4. It is red , not orange as it appears in the picture.

The Autobike is one of a matching pair, mens and ladies, I paid $40 for.

The Schwinn Le Tour came from the scrapyard for $9 and change , I believe.

Stuff I still have.

$85 for this Spaceliner Klunker but after I took it apart it does't seem like it is anymore since the person that did it as much as how good the person was the parts he put on it did not hold up to his hard riding.

$40 for this 1959 Ladies Murray built Mercury bicycle.

Free 65 & 68 Schwinn Stingray that need fixing up, I have been trying to sell the 65 that doesn't have too much on it to get parts I need.

Free Twenty Folder I am selling to get parts I need.

 

[heyslugger]

It's nice to know the deals are still out there!

 

[red_beard13]

under a hundred bucks always makes me feel warm n fuzzy! lol
Found the GT Dyno rotting on the side of the house and took it home for 20$ and made it fun to ride with some left over cruiser parts, the mountain bike is a 2011 mongoose 29er disc, rode that home for 75$!
Score on both i say!

Got this 64 sears for free cleaned it up replaced a couple cables and tires,

and traded for this Schwinn tandem plus got paid twenty dollars also

Paid $50 for this one 79 spitfire 5 speed drum brake, it needed a seat ,cables, tires, sold on the bay

A couple more free ones I sold, Mongoose & Panasonic

65 Schwinn Deluxe,,, free except I had to split what I sold it for

But I think this one is the best deal , I traded a 16" bmx bike I threw together straight across for this, all I did was add bar tape and tires
