I can't wait to get the horn tank working again. Need to find some copper terminal material to solder a new contact for the button to engage with.

Thanks @Bike from the Dead ‐----------------------- Put anti seize on the seat post and took her for a spin last night. Rear hub loosened up after a few brake tests, will tighten it up. Need to figure out what I'm going todo with the seat.

Some assembly required.

Sorry you didn't make tour deadline. Loving that saddle. 😍 it's sweet!

Montana gold makes a decent transparent black rattle can. An Airbrush with transparent black works paint works a bit better. Never tried thinning out black spray paint for the darkening effect. Looking forward to seeing the result.

🤤 Very cool hub!!! 🤤 🤤

Some parts cleaned and ready for assembly. Couldn't find rigjt sized front hub bearing rings to replace the rusted out one. 22 singles instead.

Cleaned up the rod around the rack. And the guard.

Need a new set of front bearings. Will be going to the LBS when they.open at 10 today. Not gonna fully pull apart the rear coaster. Just repack the bearings and add a little great to the assembly and going to call it good

More disassembly. Fender braces are rivetted. Wheel hubs coming apart next.

It looks like Ms Higgins is cleaning up well! I hope to have a similar pile sometime today. :-)

Sun through my pines lasts about 5-10 minutes at sun-up.

Even with the dimensions, this Mixte is a step through ladies bike in my opinion as well.

Started washing and rubbing down parts today. Subtle differences..

Figured it out. She's a 61 Flightlimer. Sold for $58.95

Great looking find and start. Hoping things straighten out the way you want! 👍

Agreed. She's a ratty crazy little thing. Still haven't washed her 🙃 She's near the end of the contract for Murray built JC Higgins. I know she's from the early 60s, but can't find enuff info to get a year. Need a sears catalog from 60-63 to find the catalog number 47050 to know for sure...

Picked up some coke bottle grips on ebay from @ifitsfreeitsforme These arrived in the mail today. Thanks Ian!! Will look at installing them this afternoon after work.

Cool. A second ladies flightliner in the build off. This chromed version is in great shape! Great looking start. Looking forward to seeing her come together!! I almost put Crazy Lady into the STBO but current plans will make her into a rusty MBBO instead.
