I came across this bike on Marketplace and it definitely caught my attention. It seems to be in great condition. It's home and ready for some love.
1970(?) Sears Gremlin
My name is Ryan, I’m about to be 29. And I’ve kind of always liked to tinker with bikes. At one point I had like 27 bikes stuff in a tiny shed at my moms house when I was in middle school. In 2009, I built my first low rider bike. Found almost everything in the trash that someone was throwing...
Hey everybody, great site you have here? My name is Mike, long time bike admirer and small collector of bikes I had when a kid. I did want to find a Thunder Road like the one my dad and I restored (incorrectly, but to our taste) as a kid. I did find this bike with the correct fenders and chain...
I am repairing a first generation huffy built tandem (the curvy frame style) and the gooseneck for the rear handlebars is stuck. The bolt sheared when I put my socket on it, leaving the wedge behind. I poured Kroil down the bolt hole and let it soak for a day; no change. I applied a torch to the...
Seems like every garage and tag sale in the region has an Orange County from Schwinn, but when I came upon a Huffy WEST COAST Choppers special, in red instead of chrome, complete with the chain guard and dummy tank, I had to have it. Even still has all the decals on the tank and guard, which I'm...
I picked up this bike to build for my girlfriend and at first it looked like your average 90s walmart bike; ashtabula crank, heavy steel frame, sidepulls, but on further inspection once in the apartment, it has things I don't often see on those old bikes; a 3/7 drivetrain, trigger shifters, and...
Picked up a 1950's boys Huffy. Crank seems to be twisted as arms are not 180 deg from each other.
Chrome is nice and I'd like to save it.
Any thoughts would be welcome.
Thinking maybe heat the non drive arm just away from the threads or the center between the threads to save the chrome and...
I know most of these aren't that sought after but picked this up and it's in real good shape. The seat is awesome. Anyone have an idea what it'd be worth? Not expecting any sort of big numbers but haven't found any others around.
Inspiration for this build is a comfortable adult size cruiser with the looks of a 80's BMX bike.
My Build off 13 entry started life as a made in USA, 1986 Huffy Savannah 10 speed Bike.
This bike was purchased at auction and was most likely stolen and abandoned.
Outstanding original deep...
This is a 1980's Huffy 26" 10 speed Mountain bike of some kind. Abandoned or stolen and bought cheap at Police auction.
Unknown history includes duct tape looped around rear tire, loose "dork disc" and rear spokes not broken but bent and loose (maybe stretched) both rims seem to run true...
I picked up this 20" Huffy Roundup this weekend. The frame looks similar to a Cheater Slick and Swinger model. I'm building this one for my son. He wants it green and black so I'm thinking I'll go with a muscle car theme. So far I have broke it down and started cleaning the surface rust off of...

This came my way via trade over a year ago. It sat patiently waiting it's turn and be semi-cannibalized for other projects. It was completely torn down and thoroughly cleaned and re-greased be for reassembly but the natural patina/crustiness it's acquired over it's lifetime was left alone...
I got this in a trade during last years MBBO and thought about entering it then. I was knee deep in refurbishing my '65 Wildcat and '65 Stingray for last years contest so I decided to mothball the Huffy and run out the clock. There wont be anything fancy done to this, just a good cleaning...
I know I have not posted here much lately, and I am sorry. This is a cool place!
At the Fairborn swap over the weekend, I bought a bunch of parts I needed, but I also bought this girl...pretty ain't she? In my opinion, this is actually a somewhat rare combination. Deluxe 1955 Huffy Customliner...
Picked this up at Iola, WI old car show and swap. Serial starts with 6H so I believe it is 1946 model. Oldest bike I've owned. Seems like a Huffy Mainliner built for Gambles stores. Bike has very rotten middleweight 26" tires. Fender clearance seems tight for 2.125 rubber, were they building...
I just love these old cruisers
I was lurking here the other night, and was looking at a thread, "Show us your Cranbrooks," something like that I believe, and there were some entries posted "I have a Good Vibrations, same bike basically " Maybe the new ones are, I don't know, but they are...
