Debrah

I don't think your tourist came with a kickstand. At least there was no kickstand when I bought my wife and I new ones in January 1979. Had to pay the bike shop extra money to put them on.

FOR SALE:   question on pricing a 1950s Murrary tricycle posted by: TL Horvath on 5/9/2004 at 2:59:17 PM
I have an unrestored 1950s Murray tricycle that is in ?good? shape. It has some rust and is missing one of the pedals. I'd like to gather some information on whether it is worth restoring and then selling OR should I just sell as is. I don't know how to price it either. Any help on resources (guides) on selling OR other suggestions would be appreciated.
