It's all about the tanklights
Got a call over the weekend about this one. Met the guy on the roadside.
I have not verified the serial number yet but, could be a 1952 and no doubt an great survivor.
Girls Firestone Super Cruiser. All OG. Rims are real rough and the Goodyear tires are cracked but, was able to air them up and took a test ride. Frame may be a shorter 26" version.
Was told the seller picked up from a farm from the OG owner who said she got it at the age of 8. Her dad got her this knowing it was too big for her but, said she would grow into it.
The 26" tires fit snugly within the fenders and could be correct. I wonder if it was originally a 24" tired bike. Not knowing the correct measurement for a 24" frame vs a 26" frame (seatpot top to the center of the BB)...anybody have those measurements?
It's too short for my wife so it must go. Email me if there is interest. Will post soon with the price.

Was told the trainlight worked before he showed it me. The horn is nice and loud.
Still a nice call and find I think, and a cool pastel green color, which apparently was the common color.
