Wow, that is impressive. That is a club that very few belong. If yours sells does that mean the new owner gets to party with your old buds?

March '65 to a March '67

Hey @Baldy Jeff , I thought that they only made black bikes for that one year '65? Were these special order bikes?

Nice sunny Black day in Kenosha melting all the cheese. Been quite a few years since I've been back there for family visits.

I never knew they came in black. I always wanted a black one but never seen one. Gary

Stingrays were never offered in black by Schwinn. It is my understanding that one batch was painted black for a dealer in '65 that would not explain the '67
