I just picked this one up a couple days ago, of course I bought it for the seat. Too bad someone drilled the extra holes in the sissy bar, makes me sad, but finding the bike with the seat makes
me happy.
This is the cleanest fastback I have found in years. One of my scouts called me and said his friend had just bought a stingray the day prior and wanted to flip it. The price was right so I drove over and bought it. It came out of a Chicagoland flea market. Hardley a scratch on it, just needs a...
I found this one a couple of days ago. Being a stingray collector, of course I bought it for the seat. What about the rest of the bike? It looks fairly old, I wonder how old? Should I put an old seat on it and sell it, do you think it's collectable? I am not familiar with the Dayton brand. Thanks
This one cleaned up real nice, local estate sale find from last year. Finally got around to detailing it. Excellent original paint and decals. As found except I added the clear winner's circles, may not be exactly correct but my favorite grips. I will probably end up turning this one loose, my...
I found this one at a local sale. It looks better in person, mostly just really dirty, it will clean up pretty nice. At first I thought the GTO stickers were original, but some kid back in the day put those on, I may leave them or remove, haven't decided. I will keep the State Farm sticker on...
it's a little late notice but tomorrow I have a chance to buy a few of the 2005 Raleigh choppers in their boxes, I wonder if there is any desire for them? I remember when they came out but haven't really seen hardly any since. O know they had a goofy seat on them but other than that they were...
I usually have no success on online auctions, this one was about an hour from me, just listed as "vintage bike", I think I bought it right. I'm surprised I even found it. I go to the auctioneer's in person auctions occasionally and decided to check out his online offerings.
The paint is real...
I have an antique dealer friend who wants me to make an offer on this old trike. I should offer him a fair price, can't low ball him which I don't do anyway. Wouldn't fit in my collection, would probably bring it to Monroe, what do you think?
I picked this one up Saturday night, drove 20 minutes in a blizzard, Craigslist find. I thought the chrome had rust from the pictures but nicely surprised when I went to look at it, it was grease with dirt on it that I saw in the pictures. Only a couple very minor rust spots. The bike has maybe...
I was headed to the airport in Chicago to pick up my daughter and drove through the old neighborhood where I grew up in southwest Michigan. I bought this bike from one of my former elderly neighbors. Decent '64 square back sissy bar and Persons solo polo with some really kool stickers. I think...
This was my best find so far this year, I don't seem to find nearly as many BMX as I think I should. I bought it right at a local estate sale, May of '81 loaded with all the goodies. I need to find some tires for it is all.
I finally had my logo designed. My younger brother came up with the idea about ten years ago while we were driving together to work, we have been working together for over thirty years. We were brainstorming on a new name for my bicycle hobby. It has said Kr8 Ape on my truck license plate for...

I bought the 5-speed that was in the classifieds, less than 1-1/2 hours from my house, half hour from my work. Bought it from a real nice member. It was better than I was expecting, will stay in the collection for sure. I can't wait to detail it. Muffin approves. Look how long the nipples are on...
Just picked up from the original owner. I decided to sell it, I don't have room for it, my bike room is getting squeezed. He told me his Mom bought it for him as a Christmas present when he was 30 years old. He rode it a couple of times and then put it in a spare room with a sheet over it until...
I picked this one up a couple of months ago and just finished detailing it. A near mint '68 5-speed. I only changed out the cables with some NOS ones. Just a couple of paint chips and that's it. The seat is perfect, the chrome had zero rust. Best one I found in a couple years.
The sign measures about 4' X 6'. It has no cracks but does have wear to the plastic surface as seen in the pictures. I made an aluminum frame for the other half that I'm keeping, not too hard to do. Local pick-up in Niles, MI. I am half mile from South Bend Indiana and I work all over northwest...
Fresh from an old estate. It needs a restoration for sure. I think it is mostly original. You should be able to see the start of a split in the seat post tube going vertically along the tube, not too bad. Of course the fenders are very dented and the other parts have wear. Local pick-up in...
For the '67 model year of course. This one is minty, only a couple of small paint chips, the seat and chrome are perfect also. I could still swear the rear tire is a tan wall, but probably just looks that way from aging. This one came from Kansa, owned by a girl, I've had it for a few years in...
I believe from 1969, 100% original, should clean up minty, will eventually try and find a new front tire. I've been working this deal for a week and finally heard back from the seller, one town over from me.
Here is a nice mini twinn. 2 speed hub, decent original paint. The chrome will clean up real nice. I have not had this one in my collection very long, haven't had time to detail it. The chainguard has some rust underneath the paint from storage in a basement and the seats have the suntan. I will...
I think this one may be the cleanest stingrays I own, has a couple of scuffs on the chainguard and one little paint chip on the fork, that's about it. The speedo shows 50 miles, I have the cable for it, can't remember why I took it off. September of 1972. Never been apart or detailed, It's been...
This was my latest find, found it over memorial day weekend,
proves they are still out there. This one is near perfect, only a couple of scratches on the entire bike with perfect seat and chrome. It's as found, I have not even cleaned it yet. The kool part about this bike is the numbers...
I've had this one for quite a few years and just got around to detailing it, I'm knocking them off my list, just have a couple more to detail. I bought this one from the original owner. He thought he would do me a favor and used SOS pads on the yellow oval and wiped away the SLIK letters, made...
