[Confused kid]

Looks like another post is needed. How rare is an old rusty 64 Stingray?

Probably as rare as an old rusty 64 Varsity. Those two models probably had the highest production numbers.

Ok. Any idea of a starting auction price ? As always I don't want to lose out ... but don' want to give it away if it dose not get many bids.

For auction prices watch E-Bay for couple of months and then you will know and can let us know also. Just put your minimum at the lowest you will accept. Roger

Oldest I have for sale was a 66 and it was in better shape but was a repaint. Not sure if this thing is better off in touched or if is still in the 250-300 range.

Can you post a pic of the serial number? I'm no Ray expert but it seems like something is off here. V/r Shawn

 

[GTs58]

The OP says it's an N4 serial Dec 64, so the bike is actually a 65 model. The Ray guys seem to use the serial number year when dating these.

 

[Confused kid]

Yes I also got December build date I believe it was made in Chicago I think I have to pull the sissy bar in order to read the entire number
