Found WTB: Yellow Schwinn stingray fork

[DonChristie]

Recently I acquired a 69 Schwinn Fastback in Yellow. While taking it apart, I could not remove the neck from the fork. I tried everything I knew but could not get it to budge. So I cut off the gooseneck! Now I need to find a replacement fork in Yellow. It is a 20 inch boys bike. Looking for used condition fork/hardware.

Thanks for any and all leads, Don.

Heres a pic of the bike and the hell I went thru tonight. I actually bent the neck trying to loosen it! Never have i had so much trouble! Ha!

If the fork isn't tore up,get a big drill bit and drill the stem out as thin as possible. Then a hacksaw blade to cut the rest of the way.
Or just find another fork.

Hi Don, have a nice yellow original fork available if you want to replace yours.

Thanks @zedsn ! I ended up buying the Fastback project Pete listed for Bob. I also needed a few pieces and this should work out good!

Here is what I have and the head tube is approx 6" long. Chrome is in good shape as well.

However mine does not have the hole for the front brake.
