This is the 2nd Bike we have for sale. It has been kept hanging in our mom's garage for all these years and not ridden. We are looking to sell the bikes because we'll be putting the house on the market.
This is an original Otasco Flying O- Vintage Yellow, Orange and green stripe Scorpion Muscle Bike with Banana Seat. It has all the original parts with the original paint, colorful sporty design with good paint, stripes and logo. Has been stored hanging in a garage so the pictures are up side down (sorry). Good used condition with a few scratches- I tried to capture in the photos. Original Striped Banana Seat has a tear. Body is good used condition showing some rust on the handlebars but I expect it could be easily polished up. I also tried to capture the item number on tag under the seat but I can't make it out.
We believe it as made in Murray of Ohio Mfg. company Lawrenceburg TN USA 07-76 “Otasco Flying O – Scorpion”
I wasn't able to find one just like it on the internet. I found bikes that look very similar by other brand, and same type bike in green but none in this design. I looked and looked but can’t find one just like it online. I don't know if that's because its more rare- or what. (I did find the Murray Pinwheel that looks similar but it’s a different manufacturer ( I assume) and a mini version and has different shape and flowers- not a boy bike or full size like this one)
It is in good original condition. I’m not sure about cost- so again I'm guesstimating. I’m thinking maybe $400-600. (even the Pinwheel I saw was quoting its value at $400-600) but I'm not sure and open to expert suggestions and information anyone has on this bike/design.
