Hello, was wondering if anyone could help me with make, model or year on my J.C. Higgins bike. I am new to this. I have searced the web but cannot find one that looks like this. Thank you in advance.

Welcome to the forum! Your bike was built by Huffy, somewhere between 1959-65. It should have a serial # starting w/a number, followed by an H. Something like 1H0000 would be a '61, 2H a '62, etc. -Adam
