This bike was picked up from a former Southern California resident. The bike belonged to a kid named Johnny, who received this as a hand me down from his older brother. Johnny added the Hi-Rise handlebars in 1960 as the Custom craze was just beginning. In 1962 he purchased a Solo Polo seat(since gone missing). This bike was Johnny's pride and joy that was ridden daily.
One day while riding down by the Bellmont Roller Coaster in Mission Beach, a man stopped to talk to him about the bike. He was interested in the modifications that Johnny had done. He really like the seat and handlebars that had been added. The man's name was Al Fritz.
This bike will be "restored" to just the way Johnny built it.
