HARPO
Cruisin' on my Bluebird
Oh, C'mon...another Raleigh??!! Yes, but it's 100% original.
I picked this one up last night from the owners house just before it started to get dark. I saw a few shots online, and determined it was a '73 mainly from the seat post decal. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
Well, it's all there! And judging from the pedals and saddle, barely ridden. The tires looked to have just come apart from sitting for so long, and any surface rust or dirt that's there would be for the same reason. The frame is WAY to small for me, but this will be my first Sprite to detail, and I'm loving the "Ivory Glaze" color that Raleigh called it. I guess I'll be playing with this, along with the Sports I posted here a couple of days ago.
In the meantime, here are the photos I took this morning. Good deal, again, and this time at $45...
