65 western flyer hi lo

[metalchewy]

My dad fell into a western flyer hi lo a couple years back, and I've been up here helping him after his back surgery. In my down time, I've been cleaning it up a bit. Pretty good condition for a 50 year old bike. Plans are to put it In the trunk of my 65 Dart, and.toole around.on it at our weekly car club get togethers. ...

Ah, it comes apart in two. The trunk comment had me confused for a second.

Yes, it comes apart for easy storage In the trunk. The large sprocket makes it very high geared.

All the brightwork was rusted, there is still more work left, re greasing the crank and gooseneck, plus working some of the deeper rust out.

It matches my convertible almost the same age, quite well. Same colors, black amd chrome.
