It followed me home today, mainly for the seat. Owner said it's a '74 Huffy bought at Sears, so maybe it's a Huffy built Spyder? Not sure. It's been spray-bombed orange a long time ago, with gold underneath. From the serial number I can't tell the year... could it be a '64? Did Huffy/Sears ever do a 'Fenderless' like Schwinn, or were they just taken off along with the chain guard? I've got a 'Spyder' chain guard that is the same shape as a Ross Barracuda, but I'm guessing Ross built Spyders for Sears, and this ain't one.
The chrome is toast, and that's disappointing. I'll try to show it some love, but I know better than to think it will be awesome. We'll see.
So... year? Make? I'd like to know what it looked like originally and shoot for that in my restoration.
