Was the Terra Cotta a one-year-only color? I know that Tony Abraham has or had one. I heard they are very hard to find.
 
Terra Cotta Stingrays.

This color (tomato soup) was only offered for about 4 months.
Late Dec. 63 thru mid April 64.

There are 2 1964 sales brochures, first brochure shows Terra Cotta and the later print shows Red.

Also the Schwinn Reporter states Terra Cotta has been dropped as a color option April 1964.

I once owned an April 64 TC standard shown below.

There was “Never” an N4 Terra Cotta Stingray !

The standard I posted above is a Terra Cotta.

Flamboyant Red was a 63 color until Schwinn took the chance on Terra Cotta in Dec. 63 and then in April 64 when TC was dropped, then they brought back the Red for the remainder of 64 just as the Brochures indicate.
Red was not offered in 65 on a Stingray.

A badly faded Red tends to look like a Terra Cotta color. Confusing at times.
