Post up the Schwinn bikes you have that made them famous!
I noticed Schwinn Sting-Rays don't get much attention on here so I want to see what you all have. Post up your 1963-1982 Schwinn Sting-Rays, Krates, Fatbacks, Manta-Rays, Run-A-Bouts, Midgets, Mini Twinns, Lil' Tigers, Fairladys, Slik Chiks, and Stardust's. Let's stay away from the OCC stuff if you don't mind and no reproductions.
I currently have a '76 Schwinn Sting-Ray waiting to be repainted back to the original yellow it used to be and I'm currently sourcing out parts for a '67 Schwinn Fastback.

Did you say StingRay**********
I owned this original beauty for a spell, but ultimately sold it to a collector, where it traveled around the country, admired by adoring fans.... unlike the well-intentioned, but cold and lonely garage existence that I kept it under. Getting it into the hands of a collector was the best thing I could do for this.... (sniff).... A 1972 Disc Orange Krate (sigh)....

These had a big hand in making Schwinn famous so the Sting-rays and Krates could get famous when they finally came along.
Did they ever make any lugged Sting rays?
