Hi /n/ I came across this bike at a flea market for about $70.

This is a blue board which means that it's for everybody (Safe For Work content only). If you see any adult content, please report it.

Hi /n/ I came across this bike at a flea market for about $70. I bought it as an impulse buy. as near as I can tell it is a late 50's early 60's western flyer/murray. I am unable to find the serial/model number on it as some else re-painted it years ago. I am probably going to rebuild/restore/customize it, but only if its worthless. If its worth something to an actual collector I will probably sell it off and let them take care of it properly.

Now on to the questions, I am only 75% sure its a western flyer and I am looking for any info anyone might have on properly identifying this bike.

I can probably provide more pictures but this being a slower board I dont check it more than once a day at best.

Its a garbage old schwinn

you can tell by the decals on the chain guard

worth about $20 bucks

you over paid

You can also tell its a Schwinn by the Schwinn bladed fork and the tubing

its not a schwinn because the kick stand is removable instead of welded on and the flattened tubing wheel brackets instead of welded brackets.

Looks like a Murray. They are not really collectible AFAIK, so ride it. There is also a cruiser bike thread here.
