1968 Sears Screamer Need Help Please,

[dorr]

I am attempting to restore a 1968 Sears Screamer.

From the ad picture, I cannot tell if the color is yellow or gold? I am thinking gold since the handlebar tape is gold? I am in need of a chain guard and rear fender.

Is anyone repopiing the longer rear fender as this is little longer than the stingray fender. Thanks for your time and help.

I have the rear fender / chain guard combo.

And the original color was a candy gold. I couldn't match it exactly, and I went with pearl instead of candy, but I like the way it came out.

Veyr cool bike! Nice little project there!

Looks like you have all the good parts for it, seat, sissy bar, shifter. Those would be the tough parts to find.

The color that matches best is Pagan Gold from House of Kolor. I have a local friend who restored one and he used that color. It was spot on!

For the chainguard, the type you want was also used on Sears Spyders. They look the same, but the problem you'll find with the Spyder guard is that the hole in the back for mounting to the frame on the Spyder guard is too far down toward the bottom of the guard. The hole won;t line up with the hole in the frame.

Still, if you need one and one pops up on eBay it can be used. Just look for one where the back hole looks 1 1/2 up from the bottom of the guard.

I found a nice chain guard from a Spyder. I might still be interested in the fender? Let me know if you can seperate, Thanks!

I think I'll probably keep them as a set.

What would you need for the set?

Let me see how things pan out. The original line I had on the replacements I needed for this project fell through.
