Dang. Not sure how I missed out on one of those (...instead of the Krate bike).

Do you know what years those were made?

Keith, I think it was a custom, but the Schwinn experts may be able to tell us for sure. It was at the MCACN show, in the Tiger Gold display.

Yes, those Stingrays were quite popular. I had the coaster brake model in red, just like in this picture. Then in about 3rd grade (1976 for me) BMX hit my town and I converted my Stingray into a BMX machine, ditched the banana seat for a Messenger saddle, added BMX handle bars and knobby tires. I guess that was really my first hot rod!

One of the storefronts of my village property. The hitching post is gone now, but the cast iron grill work and column facades still exist, about a century later. No, that ain't me standin' there in the black hat...

in the late 60's-early 70's I had a bike like the yellow one in the middle.
mine was green,a tall sissy bar,cheeter slick and I was the wheelie champion on my street. My bike was a HUFFY )

That looks like a 24" bike, with the banana seat, sissy bar and handlebars from a 20" bike. I had a 24" bike too, I don't remember ever having a 20" banana seat bike.

[OVERULD]

Yep, it was a 24". Originally came with saddle seat with the two springs under it, chrome fenders, black chain guard and low, wide handle bars. I stripped it down and added the bannana seat, sissy bar, ape hangers, speedometer, battery-operated headlight and rear view mirrors. Bought all those items at the bike accessories section at the local Ace Hardware with grass mowing money and bottle refund money. Took me a full summer of saving to buy all the stuff. I have a 35mm slide somewhere of me and my sister the Christmas day that we got our bikes.

While searching for something else; I found this photo I'd taken several yrs ago of a Modified OHC Pontiac.

IIRC it was modified and used to power a speedboat.

Wow, that's VERY cool!!

May have been posted before, I can't recall, but I thought this was one of the coolest Pontiac powered dragsters ever. A pair of Pontiac 4-cylinders, and a great name, "Eight The Hard Way".

Cool Mike! I like it!
