I have original S7 wheels,fenders, sprocket and a few other Stingray parts that I'm slowly restoring to go onto this frame. I was thinking of making a Key Lime Krate 8) ya know, the Krate that never existed. or maybe a Steamray? (a steampunk Stingray)

thanks for the quick reply. I see what you mean about the tank area. I'm kinda saddened that I don't have a true Stingray or Krate frame, but, now I won't be hearing the cries of resto nuts when I start cutting the frame.

so, I bought this frame about 3 years ago and have been building it into the pic you see here. but now the desire to know what I have is crushing me. the original color was a purple simular to the grape krate. buried under 3 layers of spray bomb paint I found some original paint in the corners...

look at my screen name and you'll figure out what I like in the first pic. :P bikes are cool too.

here's some 20" ones, if you search on this site I'm sure I saw some 26" ones http://www.bikepartsusa.com/bikeparts/i ... el-20_inch I have the same trike rear and have been looking for wheels for awhile. 24" set http://www.bikepartsusa.com/bikeparts/i ... el-24_inch

lots of ideas here http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/show ... p?t=106561

I'll definately be watchin', I have a Huffy cruiser that is on a backburner to be Tikified. love the color.

Re: Rat Trap Ray - Updated 2/9 it's nice to see a bike being built that has been a long dream. I too have recently over the past year finally been building a bike that has been planned for about as long, mine started out as a light/horn that I found in my grandfathers basement that was bought...

just looked at some maps and pics, nice, a fall ride would be cool. since it's your neighborhood start a new thread to start organizing a southeast rat ride.

I once sold a rattle can flat black and pinstriped Huffy Beach cruiser for $150 on CL. I had $15 into it. a fool and his money are soon parted. :D

I was just putting a feeler out to see if there was any interest in a ride. a fall or spring run would be alright by me. biannual?

looks like one I built about a year ago, that was " one that got away" :cry: I like it 8)

anybody interested? I'm just trying to see about setting up a central Florida annual ride. bad time of year for everyone? location? any other suggestions for locations? I would like to keep it on one of the bike trails. Nate

I'm on the wrong coast to take part in the challenge but this looks too much fun not to build one.

I had one shop charge me $1.50 per for cheapie spokes. that shop is closer to me than my regular bike shop. thats the only $3.00 they'll get from me.
