Yard Sale RollfastI picked this up on the way home from the show yesterday. I don't know what year it is, but for $10 I wasn't going to pass it up. I'm thinking of cleaning it up really goog and clear cloating over is as is. We'll see.....

Re: Yard Sale RollfastPretty cool for ten bucks. I would guess early 60s. What kind of coaster does it have?

Re: Yard Sale Rollfast
Dont know yet. Didn't look. When I was loading this up another guy started checking out the bikes. Long story short, he said he had a bunch of "old" bikes he needs to get rid of in a hurry. I'll post about that later..... Here's what the headbadge would look like if it wasn't so faded out (if that will help date it): ![]() It rolls freely and the tires are the older style but still in good shape. BUILDS IN PROGRESS

Re: Yard Sale RollfastNice score for $10.
It doesn't matter what I paid for it, it matters what it's WORTH. I never buy anything I will regret KEEPING.
Re: Yard Sale RollfastThe switched to a foil sticker sometime in the mid or late 60s. I think I've heard 1966, but I might be remembering that wrong.

Re: Yard Sale RollfastGreat deal for 10 bucks!
Wake up every morning wondering what new bike I'll find!
If you don't have pics, it probably didn't happen! A t-shirt without a pocket is just a garage rag! FIREBOLT BUILD RRBBO6: The Young American RRBBO7: Hot Rod Deluxe
Re: Yard Sale Rollfast$10 never spent better, your brake arm looks like it maybe a replacement hub, snyder built frame. Have fun with it.
If it's not been rusty what good is it?
NOS is cool, but rust is life.
Re: Yard Sale RollfastThe coaster is much later than the bicycle, they probably replaced the original when they put the new pedals and seat on, I would reckon.

Re: Yard Sale RollfastWhat is really cool is I had a Hawthorne that had a very similar frame, I paid that exact same price.

Re: Yard Sale Rollfast
That's what I fugured. They must've put it on then let it sit outside by looking at the weathering on the rims. BUILDS IN PROGRESS
