I had picked up this 1980 Stingray a while ago. I had thought about restoring it, but when I traced the serial number and found out the year, I decided it wasn't worth it. So just for fun, I redid it with mostly aftermarket parts. The crank and headset are still Schwinn, that and the frame is about it. I wanted to try out lacing a wheel, so I bought a new rim and put in a 3-speed Shimano hub I had. The bike looks better then it does in the pictures. Now I just don't know what I will do with it. Even going the low buck route, I still have about $100.00 in it. I was planning on doing it for myself, but after spending so much time around here, it is just to boring. I am going to do something much cooler for me.
I think the BMX stuff that was put on it might get me a few bucks back. They are in great shape.
