Hi, could someone give a newbie some info. as to what the value of a factory style chopper bike I have had hanging in my garage for years might be worth. I would like to up grade and get a newer bike! I think it was sold by Whites Auto Store many years ago. To view a picture of it go to: www.digitex.net/amccollister44/DSCN0126.JPG. Thanks for you time and any infomation.

I'm not sure can you give me an idea of what the badges are? Are there any decals on it? If so, what do they say/ What size are the rims and tires?

I'm interested in it.

I'm going to send you a private message so as not to clog up the board.

Probably made by Murray in the early to mid 70's. I think the one Murray made was called a Firecat or maybe a KingCat. They were also sold at Sears. I have seen similar ones on Ebay go from anywhere between $100-$300 depending on condition.
