What a great bike. My brothers was similar and stolen in Chicago in early 1965. It was a Christmas gift in December of '64. Same color and he had it about a month. Good bike locks had not been invented yet.......

I grew up in Springfield Illinois and in the mid 60’s Stingrays were being stolen constantly. I never had my ‘66 stolen, but I heard of others that were taken. For whatever reason my photos on this site tend to be dull. Other sites I post on, my photos are exactly the color in real life. This ‘64 Coppertone pops in my photos and in person, but unfortunately not here 😟.

Keep em coming. Love all the pics of bikes, slicks etc.
Burd: Sorry yours ended up that way. I have no idea what happened to mine after passing it down to my youngest bro. Probably traded it for some weed. Who knows.

I was in the Henry Ford Museum the other day and noticed they have a new exhibit focused on bicycles.
They have a Krate bike, a Lemon Peeler, on display. What tickled me was the choice they made for the companion bike in the display: a Schwinn Continental 10 speed, in Root Beer Barrel brown metallic. That is the exact bike (even the same color) I bought to replace my Krate bike when I sold it, in high school. Lemon Peeler value = approx $10,000. Schwinn Continental value = approx $10 K
