Can anybody I.D. the following Hiawatha serial number?
mainly just wanting to know what year.

WG3 708.1. 339828

No #'s, but it's Murray built, and that style frame debuted in '58. Also, if it has a bendix red band coaster brake, that would make it a '63 or later. I'd guess mid 60s in that color. ~Adam
 
I can add to this old thread, that I recently found out that Murray-built Hiawathas had their own in house serial numbering system, much like Firestone badged bikes. Only the NBHAA has that information, so one would probably need to pay a few bucks for an evaluation. The most recent one posted could indeed be a Huffy, but pics will confirm. -Adam
