63 stingray

-
Here's one to ponder over. Frame/Fork/Guard is it Terra-Cotta or Red 4 out of 5 say its Terra-Cotta. Tried to get a clear shot of the fork # but just can't get it to come out clear. Date code ( 12-3 ). Looking close at the rear drop out, can't tell 1st letter in the pic but it's a ( M 3 ). So, both make sense it's a Dec 1963. Head badge if off so you can see it's not faded Red. Original never been repainted, no touch ups. Had it next to a Red and this color is defiantly not the same. Feel free to voice your option if you wish. Was 100% complete when I got it 25 + yrs. ago. This is what's left of it. For sale if interested in for the right offer.

Oh Santa was supposed to drop that at my house. It was on my list.
 
Yeah the plan is to leave the paint alone get everything moving. Clean the light surface rust and leave the heavy rust alone.oil all the paint and rust. And put new rims on it. And keep as much original as i can.
I highly recommend this product.

This is what’s being used on old Survivor cars, bicycles, etc.

Spray or wipe it on paint, chrome, vinyl and it protects against the elements without harming anything.

I picked up this persons seat because i only have half the pan from the stingray. There's no rear tag, persons is stamped on the bottom and there's no big rectanglular sticker on the bottom. I assume this is newer than 63?

Persons made seats for several companies and they may not have tags if not Schwinn. They offered these prior to '63 to other brands. I have several like yours without the tags. The pan is the same, you've got a great donor for your 63 there. Have it restored and add the tag - just drill it out for the rivets
