Crusty ratty Huffy Trophy CS

[dragnusa]

This maybe the crustiest bicycle I have ever bought, yes I did buy it. It was stored in a leaky shed until recently when they had a friend tear down the shed and haul all the "junk" away. Well this Huffy Trophy CS was part of the junk. It's real rusty but still feels solid.

Couldn't resist working on it, how far I got before running out of light. should have been working on my build off bike

I started wire wheeling the top rails while the stuck bolts soaked

Bummer. I would have offered you good money for it with the original paint untouched, no matter how crusty.

Since it has been in my hometown since new I probably wouldn't have sold it anyways.

Ya I don't know about you, but there something about crusty muscle bikes the story behind them is just awesome. You just know that they where treasured by some kid in the 60s. I have something quite smiler a 65 Deluxe Sting-Ray that was yard art, spent it whole life in Boise Idaho most likely. hopefully I'll never have to sell it
