COASTY 26 Posted March 15, 2009 Yep! 1983 Fuji. Also, everyone says #7 is a Redline. Could it be a Raleigh ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

S.Brothers 1,032 Posted March 15, 2009 Some very venerable efforts so far... duly impressed. However... no one has got them all correct yet. Some were pretty close. Some of these are pretty tricky because they are so similar to other brands. Anyway... keep at it. Full answers will be forthcoming in a day or so.
