I think that's a kid's bike (made by Snyder, who made Rollfast also) that was converted to a muscle bike. The rear fender is not cropped, the seat is the wrong color as are the handlebar grips.
It should have a standard seat and regular handlebars. But it is in good shape, and a boy's bike from the 60's, which is uncommon because boys usually destroy their bikes within a year. I know firsthand about destroying bikes as a boy.

It's same as the rollfast. @rrtbike just sold a 26" w a floating tank. I got the red rollfast. Look under the rollfast and can see theiddle bar is decorative and almo yust an after thought... I think the Hawthorne's are hot... Twin tube no middle... I'd take before a roll if had one prolly already.
Hawthorne was the brand name used by Montgomery ward. They also used AMF frames along with the Snyder (Rollfast).
Yes sorry be unclear, was just trying get him o flip the rollfast over, it's very apparent he middle bar was slammed in to separate the models... I'm starting to think I'd like a Hawthorne version as well. My rollfast is boxed waiting parts or I'd shoot it.
Is there any value on this bike -- another bike I see next to nothing about
You may end up dealing with someone like me pointing out its missing a tank, and interested in for parts at $40...
Ads still up and I got no reply.
