Long Story of the RUNAWAY bike

Mom gets most of the credit for that.

Lynn,

Happy Thanksgiving !

Great story, neat interview at MCACN and awesome Huffy Dragster II.
Looks like a very nice Original Paint Survivor and that rear cheater slick tire is worth big money on its own.
This bike found the Perfect home with you.
Display it and share it.

I have been collecting the early Schwinn Stingrays for decades and have a thread here on this site (7-31-24) that you chimed in on.

Here are a few things of interest for you and your new toy.
Please be very cautious with the white screen on the chainguard and fork as it will wipe right of with any cleaners or wax.
A couple examples (not mine) of this Huffy.

BTW, one hell of a stache !

Thanks for sharing, Chris

The stache will come off after the evening of Dec 14. We are dressing up in our 1890s outfits for the Victorian walk the first two Saturdays in Dec.

I haven't found any info on pricing for the Dragster II three speed. Am I in the ball park at $55?

$55 seems about what I recall them being advertised at.
That walk looks like fun !
This your museum and better half ?

I got that letter press going a few years ago. We still use it.

Here is another photo that we ran across on the net today, posted by a company that sells Victorian clothing. I can tell that the pic was taken in Dec. 2022 from the stage of restoration. In the back ground are some of the 624 drawers on that wall that hold all of the pre printed forms printed in that building. We have some forms that were printed before 1910.

I saw you walking around MCACN, you were the only with that mustache.

That is our Museum. Not Sherri.

All good. No offence was taken.
