I have just purchaced a Sears Tote/Cycle. It has a bike license from 1971, but I think the bike pre-dates that by a couple of years. I am having no luck finding information about the bike. I would like to find out it's value. It's in very fine condition. Everything looks original. But I can not confirm it's original parts without research. Please help me find my way. Thanks

MISC:   Sears Spaceliner posted by: Joe Smith on 4/26/2002 at 7:26:00 PM
I have aquired an old bike, which I just found out is a Sears Spaceliner, and would like some info on it. Does anyone know anything about this bike? Mine is, I believe, a 1964 model, with Chrome frame and dark red paint. It has light and all the goodies. It's missing the front fender, springer, and the handlebars are different. Some guy spray painted it a funky kinda red, but I'm in the process of removing that. Anybody got a ballpark figure of what it's worth? Is it worth restoring? Please give me a clue. Thanks tremendously!
