Well here's one of my bikes, 'Dead Rat', an old Western Flyer that I got in a trade with my friend a couple streets over who is also into old bikes. I have no idea what year it is. The only original part to the frame is the crank, but I will be swapping that out too as soon as I can find a...

Thanks!

Thank you so much for your help, I appreciate it.

They are, I will post them soon.

I don't think she will do any kind of trades, she is dead set on keeping it and keeping it as it is. Also, communication with her is terrible, I've messaged her several times and she doesn't answer her text messages. Thanks for the reply.

Her husband found it somewhere and gave it to her. Communication with her is terrible, I've messaged her several times. She doesn't answer her text messages and I don't think she'll do a trade so I'll let it go. I just bought that Torpedo anyway so I have a project to keep me busy for a while...

I got the serial number

Okay got it! The serial number is: C154030

Thank you, I will! What is the best thread to post them?

I just picked up this Torpedo but there is no serial number on it anywhere. Can anyone identify what year it might be?
