60sstuff
Wore out three sets of tires already!
I love every color that Schwinn offered on the early Stingrays (63-65), but especially the Flam Lime.
This color just seems to have a glow like no other.
I’ve been fortunate to acquire four different models (63, 64 and two 65’s) in this color that still have their Factory Original paint and screens.
I’m featuring my ‘64 J-39-6 Deluxe that l purchased from the Original owner decades ago.
Frame - H4xxxxx = Aug. 19, 1964
Fork - 8-4 = Aug. 64
Front axle - Z-64
Crank - SA 7 64 = July 64
Center stamp 36 spoke S-2 / 1967 dated knobby.
Center stamp S-7 / Original Westwind (3rd 1/4 ‘64 date).
Crimped seat strut with round vent hole.
Excellent factory tufted solo polo seat.
I got a huge bonus with this bike in the Original Guarantee card filled out by the Dealer and New owner. Priceless.
They had “Reliable Bicycle Shop“ add an automatic three red band 36 hole hub to this Stingray which I replaced with the stock red band coaster hub.
