Just curious if anyone has a pic of a nice purple rail Huffy..Slingshot preferred. I am looking to buy one some day, and need to know what I want. I really need to see the console shifter. I recall one with a window, and marker behind it. Would like to see a pic, and know the variation. I have a woodgrain version now. Hit the following link if you want to see my article on my NOS Huffy Rail, and a nice restored 20" sears spyder! shifters are shown close up, still looking for that special bike I seen at Ames when I was a kid, Tom http://www.vintagetoyroom.com/review/ |
Here is my email, toys@vintagetoyroom.com if anyone has pics or info on the shifter types, or the purple rails! Tom |

I'm looking for a wing-tip style guard for a 16" Midget Sting-Ray. This project will be a repaint, so whatever you've got will work for me. Dig through your stash and see what you can part with. Thanks in advance, JD |
I'm thinking this mystery Chopper could be a mutant hybrid Canadian Raleigh Chopper made in England for the poor Canadians. |
The Canadian rebadged Raleigh Chopper was called the Fast Back 100, and was sold by Eaton's of catalogue and department store fame as part of their Glider bicycle line. No coil springs on the sissybar and Mark I frames only with orange paint. |
There is no cissy bar at all on this. |
They also made a girls Eatons fastback, called a fastback princess. I've got one in the post from canada at the moment, and it's a gorgeous purple! If anybody else has any info, pics or original sales material for these bikes, please let me know. ps - There's also a '69 orange boys fastback on it's way as well!! |
Mystery Mutant Raleigh Chopper bike pictures are in! The pictures I took are back and scanned sheets are ready. Please e- mail me your postal address so you can see what it is that I have found. I am trying to get this set of pictures posted at the Chopper web sites so folks can see this bike. I need post addresses from interested Chopper members. This is unlike any other Raleigh Chopper type bicycle I have seen anyplace. So this will be a first. I have never seen this beast before in all my hunting and collecting and trading and looking. Can somebody out there let me know what it is that I have? I think the Chopper folks will find it interesting. please e- mail. thanks! humberchristopher28@hotmail.com Like I said before, this is not an: R..S.W. 14, OR R.S.W. 16, NOT A RALEIGH TWENTY, OR A CHIPPER OR A BUDGIE OR ANYTHING ELSE WE HAVE EVER SEEN. YET, IT HAS A RALEIGH BADGE DECAL AND HAS RALEIGH CUPS. BIKE IS ORANGE. |
Does anybody care to offer to help me in identifying this? |
Ive had this old bike for years, has a April 74 datecode, sky blue under repaint, single-coaster, 24" on back, 20"on front, it rides fone but needs work,of course. I have some pics I will send someone who can tell me what this dang thing is and if its worth fixing up! |
It certainly wouldn't be a Manta Ray because they were 24" front and back and were made in '71 and '72 only. I've seen Murray Eliminators with the 20" x 24" wheel combo. Hope this helps. |
If the serial number reads out to an actual date then it's definatly not an Eliminator. Murray codes are so far indecipherable. |
Are 3sp Barracudas worth anything? Paint is rough, fenders have some dents, but it looks complete and is rideable. Muscle bikes aren't my thing but I got this with some other rides and would apprciate some info. Thanks. John |
hey, what other muscle bikes did you get other then the the barracuda? |
none!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
none!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
A Ross Barracuda (girl's frame) just sold here for $250. 3-speed - fair condition. |
A girls frame? The only girls frames I would consider spending that kind of money on are Raleigh Chopper, Iverson Dragstripper, and a Schwinn Slik Chik. |
All this talk about Schwinn Slick Chick's! I don't think the bike will ever sell for more than the $15.00 I'll put into it and I'll be married to the darned thing forever but I am resolved to take it all to the bare walls and that will be part of the deal. I have no feelings for this model and it's was a waste of time and material. |
The Schwinn Slick Chic was not a bike kissed with magic charm like the other Schwinn's were. |
You know, that is really amazing. You don't like it just because it is a girl's bike. My best memories as a child are riding around on my GIRL'S Sting-Ray because I am a girl. Comments like that are unnecessary because many of the boys Sting-Rays have little value to ME because I am not a boy. If you saw both my Slik Chik and Fair Lady, you wouldn't have one negative thing to say about them because they are completely orginal and need absolutely nothing. So really, don't bash what many people love. They both have A LOT of value to me. |
One more thing, I will be building a website dedicated to the girl's Sting-Rays in the near future for people to enjoy. I receive about 2 to 3 e-mails per week asking me questions about them. Chris, you might want to stay away from the site because it might not be "kissed with magic charm". |
