I'm selling this bike. I love the frame, but I don't have time for another project right now.

Thanks!
 
Nice project. That's an early 50's frame, made by Snyder (Rollfast). The chain ring is Columbia. With a JC Higgins rear hub, both the wheels probably came off a Sears bike (since they match in color). The tires are lightning darts. The seat and handlebars and stem look old and might be the right ones. The forks are Murray, maybe from the Sears JC Higgins bike, many made by Murray. The spacer on the bottom will cause the forks to bend, a spacer needs to be above the frame on the forks if it is used.
GLWTS!
