Girls ROLLFAST

[dragnusa]

I got this girls rollfast today from a scrapyard they had it in the corner of their shop for who knows how long. the only thing it seems to be missing is one of the bars for the back rack it has a Perry rear hub and goodyear tires and the number on it reads B315815. I dont know anything about rollfasts so any info would be nice.

havent tried to do anything with it yet but the rims and chain seem to be in good shape

Nice find, yours looks way better in condition than my mid 60's-70's Rollfast.

Thanks, I have some purpleish red metallic spray paint thats been screaming for a project and I think this is it

I know a fat tire wont fit on the front but does anyone know if one will fit on the back?

Rollfasts were made by H.P. Snyder who also made bikes for such department stores like Montgomary Wards and called the Hawthornes. I have a 65' H.P. Snyder built Hawthorne (step thru frame) that I rebuilt for my wife. Cool find and nice rear carrier on that too.
