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.......

Thank you Tim.

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.

Looks like someone put a Schwinn seat on that Huffy bike. The Dragster II came with leopard print seat.
