I’m always looking for accessories to dress up my diecast displays. I noticed this bike in a model kit on eBay, had to have it. It’s actually a little model kit in itself, and it’s so tiny, being in that it’s in 1/24 scale, that it was kind of difficult for an old feeble man to build it. I think it turned out pretty good, and it looks cool next to the Danbury Vettes. I wanted one of these bikes when I was a boy, I remember the “Peeler” series from Schwann with the shifter on the frame rail, the small front tire, and the cheater slick out back. Nothing cooler!

.......despite Jack`s odd turnings,Schawnn (sp) used to run a "meat from your pickup truck" business......except much of their focus was on high dairy-fat ice cream....it stood to reason that a heavily muscled Stingray pilot would get first choice when the Schwann wagon turned onto your street....unless unless it was a bear patrol night

Too right JayBee....thanks for the clarification; although the pilot involvement seemed to be an odd turning....
