MANTA RAY PROJECT

[SHO2010]

I have this 1972 Manta Ray to put together. I am thinking of changing the color to Silver Mist as I already have a yellow Manta Ray. I was wondering what everyone else thinks.

Silver is a fun color to paint. Clear coat really helps. I would go with a very fine metallic.

They are only original once if that frame isn't all nicked up Id clean and polish it chain guard looks damn good

Want to sell it then you will only have one yellow one?

The original derailleur on a Manta Ray didn't have a number designation (e.g. GT-xxx), it was simply labeled a "Schwinn Approved" derailleur, and was made by Huret for Schwinn.

You are correct it just says Schwinn Approved.
