... '79 Stingray custom ...

 

[ODDER]

65 Typhoon turned super deluxe stingray.

1963 Typhoon, 1963 Stingray bars, a later yellow band 2 speed, deluxe seat and some after market fenders that came on it. The double braces on the front make for a stronger fender that comes in handy when I ride my kids on the bars. They can put their feet up on it with no issues.

My 1959 who knows? Now my Upstate winter salt eater.

I mean, I just posted her up in a different thread yesterday, but this is definitely my next level custom build. Great thread.

Here's one I built to cruise around Portland the one year I went. I added the rear basket to use it as a grocery getter.

Did you buy those wheels or have them made up? Lots of spokes and sore fingers either way

Bought. They are just some Chinese made, lowrider stuff.

I thought about it, realized I actually have one other bike that fits the bill, here. My actual first ever Schwinn. I've been messing with this one for 30 years. Mid 50s Schwinn 20".
