64 Schwinn Stingray Chopper

[indycycling]

Built this one up today

64 Stingray clear coated bare frame I'd picked up some time ago. Landed this original Bill Matthews Top Fueler Drag Fork locally recently and they seemed to be a great match. Built up the Mag S2 red band some time ago, polished up a skinny S5 Fastback wheel up front, some 69 turn down bars and some black parts to compliment the the raw metal and chrome.

I'd love to find a nicer tall sissy bar, something like a Matthews hangman.

Going to finish it up with some black screens and water slide decals

A 1"ID Harley axle spacer would fit in the area where the fork threads show.
A custom M/C shop should have a selection, I get mine from a friend nearby.
Put one on my custom 1960 Typhoon 20" with a Phantom fork really finished the fork off nice.

Here’s an old-timey biker word for ya: righteous!

Love polished/raw/chrome. Very cool bike.

great idea, I was thinking the same thing, needed something to hide the threads, thanks

You could probably measure from top of the fork to the bottom of the top nut and allow space to torque you could eliminate one of the nuts as well.
Cool bike man!
