1977 Panda Charger

1977 Panda MX Charger 2 "Surviver"

Here's a true Survivor, found in my brother-in-law's parents barn.  I noticed it and asked my bro what he wanted to do with it, and he gave it to me.  So it'll stay in the family!
This bike was purchased new by him from a bike shop in DesMoines Washington back in the late 70's.  He kept it 99.9% original. 
The only thing that isn't original on this bike are the steel Rat Trap pedals, which are era-correct (NOS)
 
It stopped raining here in the NW and I JUST TOOK IT FOR A RIDE, and IT RODE GREAT! 
 
SPECS:
 
Frame/Fork - Panda MX Charger 2 (original decals), '77 Ashtabula (stamped)
Bars/Stem/Grips - Panda, Ashtabula (stamped), original grips
Cranks - Takagi with a Takagi "Three Arrows" Chainring
Pedals - 70's Steel Rat-Traps (NOS)
Rims/Tires - Kinlin (original chrome) with heavy gauge Spokes, Shimano Coaster, MX ELITE Nobby-Tires
Seat/post - Na Shyang (quilted Vinyl), original chrome post

Re: 1977 Panda Charger

Very cool bike. I am doing one ( 76) in black and white.


Still a million bucks shy of being a millionaire.
