What colours did Araya 7b's originally come in ?

(1/3) > >>

bobafett:
I know they definitely came in clear alloy and also gold and later rims like 7x also came in blue, black or red as well but not sure if these colours were definitely available on 7b's :-\

Chrome finish on the alloy rims and also black looks like it didn't come until the 7x were around so that's those ruled out for 7b's I reckon.

I have all the araya catalogues available but unfortunatley they jump from 1970 to 1980. The 1970 shows clear alloy only and the 1980 doesn't show 7b's  :( The catalogues also show 7c's as red,gold,blue or silver alloy.

Any confirmations of original colours then for 7b's ? Any advert pics ?

jT Racing:
i'm pretty sure i've seen red, but there is no way i could confirm it was an OG finish.

RATTY:
I have a red 7b rim, and Im sure Stompin Stu used a red 7b up front on his redline :daumenhoch:

Redline:
