Any ideas oin what this is? Or was?

Hello muscle bike people. A friend of mine picked up this bike yesterday and we are wondering if anyone knew what it may have been at one time? If someone can give us a model name and/or a picture of a more complete one we would be very grateful. It is sticker badged Belknap Bluegrass and says Rollfast on the chain guard which I am not sure is original to the bike.



Thanks

Looks like a re-badged Huffy. I think the Huffy version was called "The Huffy Wheel"

The chainguard is probably not the right one...it looks to be a Huffy badged as a 'Belknap BlueGrass' (new to me, as well ). Here is a similar one (a Rail instead of a Wheel) I found with a quick search...

...with more pics here...

Agreed, a Huffy made bike. It should have a serial number to ID the year, 8H would be 1968, 6H 1966 etc.
it's a nice Rollfast guard stuck on there.

Awesome start of a Huffy "The Wheel" bike.
