Hi there,
So the man and I were out ridin' today and spied something curious sticking out of the back of a junk-piled truck. Further investigation led to finding this beauty - a 24" (edit: may be 26" frame with 24" wheel set?) Hawthorne in excellent shape, complete with tank, horn, fenders and rear rack. It's missing the skiptooth chain and a lens for the light, and possibly a skirt guard. BUT LOOK AT THOSE SPRINGERS!! Wow.
Best part? We got it for $30. Delivered to our house.
Since I know the databases of Hawthorne serial numbers are really wonky due to the multiple manufacturers, I'm hoping someone here might be able to help us nail down a general idea of how old this girl is.
Serial number: F15529
