A guy I know wants to sell his stingray that he's had since it was new, I wouldn't mind buying it,but I'm not sure what a fair offer would be. This is a before pic, it has been totally cleaned and serviced, new cables and the original chain guard put back on. Thanks

The front wheel is wrong and the front caliper is missing. $200 max.

I guess I should try to update the picture. My apologies, the brakes are both back on. This is what the bike looked like when I got it to overhaul. The front wheel is wrong, everything else should be correct. I did put generic brake cables on though.

Well, being a firefighter for the last 17 years, I have "acquired" a few things.

It's tough to put a value on an incomplete bike. Most collectors want all original parts and are going to value it based on what it will take to return it to original. The good news is the missing parts aren't particularly rare (shifter overload tube can be a tough one). The bad news is the bike isn't particularly rare either I would say $200 max is pretty accurate though it could get more parted out.
