I’d have grabbed that and refurbished or parted it! Next guy may have given it a ticket to the crusher!

SOLD!!

Handlebars SOLD Fork SOLD Basket is no longer available, wife wants it.

I built mine to be ridden, and the only bike with vintage tires is my blue Radiobike. Those tires are NOS, and the bike is driven / ridden maybe 10 miles a year. Just to keep everything lubricated, and the tires in check. The others see lots of miles, and any rusty chains have been replaced with...

Reduced! This needs to move!

That is definitely obscure.

I wouldn’t be surprised if both of these are still stashed deep within the bowels of a Universal Studios warehouse.

1965 Huffy Silver Jet. Vintage Star Trek badge in the rack.

Better get this one NOW!!! I’d get it but bikes are not in my budget right now. That light is worth more than he’s asking for the bike!!! https://www.facebook.com/share/t7nZp2NtUihHmkMU/?mibextid=79PoIi

The above bike has a potential buyer coming this morning 😊

Fork and headset are gone. Everything else still available.

Another random thing I kept…and forgot about…rusted out Delta battery trays for rear carrier lights. Worthless, useless, and beyond hope. You buy 3D-printed ones that are more reliable and with LED. Who would want inoperable, rusty metal? I may actually toss them when I spring clean.

I had a hard time finding good donor wheels for my blue Radiobike that even after the rebuild, I kept the spare rim and front spokes and nipples I saved from my parts pile. That is, until another CABE member needed them for his Radiobike. That need allowed me to let them leave in a box.

Old family bike I’ve had for about 17 years is a 1966 Sears Spaceliner, women’s model, base model. Beat to hell, missing a couple parts, the last several years, it’s been a yard ornament in the back. Not sure I’ll ever do anything with it. It’s not worth anything, barely worth parting, it really...

I had no idea you quit! What made you do that? Admittedly, for several reasons, I have not bought any “keepers” in over five years. I’m content with the bikes I have.

Late night talk thought. Anyone have a bike or a part that serves no purpose, isn’t worth fixing, yet you hold onto it? If so, why?

First bike of 2024, due to home renovations and moving, I did not get this done last year. 1989 Huffy 10 Speed, just listed locally for $100 firm. The original owner loved it to death and it shows, somebody, the right person that is sick of Pacific-Cycle crap, will snap this up. I’m amazed how...

Well, I can tell you this, big and powerful Disney isn’t concerned one bit with that bike and I doubt anyone will be able to contact anybody with the power to let you walk out with it. So, best to admire it and realize it may never see the road again but at least someone may notice it as an...

From a curiosity stand point, I’d love to learn more about this hub, and find a Huffy Thunderbird with this drivetrain intact. I’d guess these are critically endangered for the fact that so little info is out there and there is a clear lack of replacement parts and probably has been for half a...

Not every bike I get is saved. This 1972 Breeze needed too much work to make it worth my time. I’d spend $100 or more in parts on a $120 bike, at best. Base model, single speed coaster, heavy paint wear, fenders are banged up, wheels are rusty and would never clean up well and look right, tires...

That is a shame, considering how nice those all were, especially after being reconditioned. It’s also my marketing, I emphasize the bike (regardless of brand) that it has been reconditioned and has had “whatever” done to it. Most people, when they list a bike, take terrible pictures, often dark...

Thank you, that is a 1969 Huffy Camaro that came from a storage locker clean out. Everything was decent except for the white frame and fork. I stripped the frame fork, did some body work and eliminated the tank, and repaint them Ford Silver Frost. It popped, a lady in her 50’s bought it to ride...

Three more, all Huffy, sold for between $100-$150. The black one was NOS, it still had the tag on the rear tube. It was in my collection until I downsized because it was such a time capsule.

Yes, that would make a difference. I live in a small town but the trail runs right through Main Street, and connects to dozens of cities in the area, and spans several counties. There’s also three colleges within an hour of here.

I can’t find too many pics, I usually delete my listings once bikes are sold but here’s a couple I fixed up and sold. The AMF brought $120, the Cannondale $300. The AMF would have been hauled away by scrap collectors in the eyes of most of these charities. It was a basket case.

I never just junk a solid old 10 speed or older mountain bike as long as it is in decent condition. I get them for next to nothing, fix them up, and sell them for $100-$300 all day long depending on brand, age, features, and cost to repair. I have a 1 owner 1990 Huffy on my stand I am about to...

Bump. Bike is dismantled, frame is scrapped.

That is a nice survivor!!

Radiobike on FB Marketplace? Did you get a screenshot?

My late granddaddy had a Crown Vic, similar year. It was red with a white top. Also a later 1990 model in tan with a tan top. Both were comfortable sofas on wheels.

Good friction motor, ladder is moveable. Not super detailed but it is in very good condition. Asking $30 shipped in the USA.

This antique 1950’s toy can be a top shelf piece for a collector. Often, these metal trucks are heavily worn, rusted, smashed, and certainly always are missing the box. The only thing missing from this truck is a common hubcap, otherwise play wear is very light. There’s a large scratch on a...

I sold this years ago. Sorry I never did mark this as such.

Here are all four bikes that have placed in shows as of now. Back: ‘63 Huffy Impala, special ordered black, took 3rd place in 2010 at Daddy Katz. Back left, red 1955 Huffy Radiobike, took best of show, bike and motorcycle, in Celina in 2017. Back right, 1964 Firestone 500 II, took Most Original...

Hi everyone, it’s been a hot minute since I’ve posted anything for sale, but it’s time to spring clean. 1972 Schwinn Breeze, it isn’t worth my time and expense to restore, so I’m going to part it out. The front rim is rusted through, and the rear is pitted, so those are scrap. I charge actual...

Nice deal - whoever snagged that!

It’s the special! It was specially ordered that way!

Wow! $60? With the tank and rack intact? The tank is or used to be worth more than that if it was complete and working.

Overpriced, way overpriced, for even the most mint originals, to start with. This bike is not only spray-bombed, it’s spray-nuked! If it’s paintable, it’s spray painted! I messaged who I hope was an unknowing seller, because this hot mess is advertised as “mostly original”. It’s a mess but hey...

I read it either here or at one of our local museums. No pictures, just what I’ve read.

It’s been said that most of the Wright Cycles perished in the Great Flood of 1913. Then the World War scrap drives took care of the survivors.

I always liked these, kind of the “NASH” of the vintage bicycle world. A dearly departed friend of mine here had one, and it was showroom new.

I used to buy and sell vintage auto parts as a hustle, and I did pretty good. You are spot on. If you have a rare part for a common car, you have a large pool of buyers who want it. If you have a rare part for a very rare and obscure car, you have a limited pool of buyers who may or may not need...

How about tail light Tuesday?

I love that tank!!

Getting very hard to find those. Good luck!

I’d love to find that atomic age gear selector!

You’re welcome, and welcome aboard!
