1984 Raleigh SuperTuff Burner, mine was stolen over Christmas in 1985:

1985 Skyway Streetbeat - I had one in chrome with red Tuffs:

1985 Raleigh Aero Pro, I raced one of these for a shop team:

I've got one of these:

Its a 1980 Huffy Pro Thunder, except mine was in really bad condition so I fixed it up and painted it international truck green. It looks pretty good now, It has different wheels and the handlebars are now white also.

PK Rippers were the ultimate BMX back in the day. Those lucky enough to have one were legendary. The Redline's and Mongooses were also really sort after.
I nearly talked my mum into buying me a Mongoose Team USA cromo. It was really sexy. I had to race on some shitty Hanimax and Apollo BMX's, still beat most of the kids with their good bikes.

Some old BMXAs in pdf form : http://www.theomofbmx.com/BMXAction.html There are more out there , just google ya brains out.

Another museum http://www.vintagebmx.com/museum_new.htm Heaps of bikes , pics are a bit small though.

There was a thread on vintagebmx forums a while ago where user "Tim" had pics of some of his collection. This guy has not only a massive number of bikes , but some of the most rare models in pristine condition from the 70s and 80s. I found the thread but unfortunately the pics are gone , possibly lost in a changeover of forum version.

Thread here : http://www.vintagebmx.com/community/index.php?showtopic=1017212&hl=museum+collection ....just so you can be dissapointed like me !

I'll see if I can find some pics on my old computer......

Not positive , but pretty sure this is Tims collection. I can't believe I didn't save any of the pics. They were done in a studio , rare as rockinghorse shit ex factory frames built with NOS parts ! :facepalm:

Also 2 random restorations , a Quadangle and a Team Goose.
