The $200-$300 range is normal for Stingrays depending on its condition, and slightly higher w/ 3-speed hubs; if you get even higher offers than the normal range, TAKE IT! good luck!

MISC:   68 Sears Spyder Chopper posted by: Mike on 5/11/2006 at 1:38:35 PM
Well, here it is, a circa '68 Sears Spyder (Murray Wildcat) 3 Speed. Two weeks after being on the curb to be trashed, it back in it's glory. For all you purists out there, this needed total restoration along with a repaint saving a little of it's originality. She's a rider, not a trailer queen.

I am looking for any information on a bike that was given to me. It looks very much like a Raleigh chipper kids bike but has solid wheels. It has a raleigh sticker on it and a sunbeam sticker but also has a champ sticker across the frame. I have trawled the net but can't find any info re year, value, etc Can you help.
