Bought one, got one free.

The first is an older Rambler badged Westfield, and the seller threw in the JC Higgins Flightliner free. Both are pretty wrecked.
The Rambler is mid 30's I believe. It has an unusual star sprocket I don't think I've seen before. It may be incorrect, since the crank looks like it's been replaced. The fork is a little bent but not a huge deal. I think it probably came with 28" wheels, but it has some cool chromed fenders with skirt guard holes.

Not much can be said about the JC Higgins. Its impressive how much of the tank has rusted off, as well as part of the strut between the top and bottom tubes.

That star sprocket was used on Elgins, which were made by Westfield during that era, up to around '38. Iver Johnson used one too, but it might not be exactly the same. But quite possible the Westfield factory had a leftover Elgin chainring and used it here. -Adam

Best example of battery acid corrosion I've ever seen.
