1949? Shelby badged Hiawatha

[Hitman44]

I was excited to score this rusty gold. Any idea how to date it for sure?

Perhaps a Donald Duck?

Nice! Where do you find these all the time?

As for the bike, I don't know. I thought Hiawatha was a badged Shelby or CWC, or other.

Oh you know lol!

I might make it a Donald Duck? Am I crazy?

nice!!! looks almost ready to ride i say put tires on it lube ... ride it i made a mistake and repainted my huffy and regretted it ever since however, i redeemed myself but not repainting my space liner i did not even put a lot of effort into cleaning it just pretty much lubed it aired up tires and rode it i did swap tires with whitewalls but they came with the bike patina is cool and it shows the bike was loved
