Up for sale is my 1978 Schwinn Stingray (August 1978). Purchased a year ago and never assembled, I have come to the point of over-saturation and need to let it go.
The bike is complete and in average-to-above average condition. The bike has been rode, definitely not abused and appears to have been kept inside when not in use.
Frame: Original paint in Sky Blue. Frame rust-free, straight and shows no signs of repair. I do not see any paint repairs nor touch-up. Paint exhibits typical, but slightly less than average chips/scratches. chain guard is intact and arrow-straight exhibiting a few minor paint chips.
Decal are intact with minor damage as a result of paint chipping.
Wheels: Schwinn non-stamped S-7 & S-2 rims.Schwinn Approved front hub/ Sturmey-Archer rear hub. Rim chrome in excellent condition with no rim dents nor curb rash, etc. All spokes intact.
Front tire is a Schwinn Westwind/Rear is a Schwinn Knobby. Both tires have wear, are aged and have some cracking along the rim flange area.
Fenders: Fenders were removed -dents rolled out. Chrome is excellent with typical cleaning scratches.
Additional chrome : Other chrome is dirty/tarnished and spotted. Obviously needs cleaning. Outcome unknown.
Seats and grips: Original grips with some slight end scuffing/overall nice condition. Seat is original with a small section of padding gone and a small less that 1" split in the seat towards the back. Seat post and rear seat frame are in good condition with typical wear - "Q" bolts present.
I am attaching a series of photos. Please ask any/all questions before purchase. This is a final sale item with no returns.
Sale and Shipping: This sale is limited to the 48 inland US States. No AK, HI not PR and nothing International.
The cost of shipping has increased and I do not trust the accuracy of online calculators. I am using the Fex-Ex online freight calculator as a guide. Any actual freight overages will be refunded; any additional freight fees will be requested prior to shipping.
Payment via PayPal Friends & Family only.
