Huffy Camaro ????

[pick]

Picked this up off of ebay for $10. (drove 100 miles to get it though!) I believe it is a 24" camaro. Tank appears to be original. Crank is locked up. Rims are straight with surface rust. Red band rear bendix hub. Lense is missing from tank light, but otherwise it is complete.

Any input on freeing up the crank assy is appreciated. Just soak the heck out of it with PB Blaster?

Cool, good deal! Could be any of their car named models without a chainguard or readable decal on the tank. -Adam

They had an Eldorado in that style also, but the ones I have seen are all gold colored.

pb works good; but it sure smells funky.

I'm pretty sure the Huffy Camaro was a girls bike. I think Wildcat nailed it with the Eldorado.

I stand corrected! Just saw the green Camaro in your other post.

I did an extensive search and came up with this 71 Camaro as the closest to yours, going by the color.

My Monark badged, Huffy built El Camino. I have an intact tank light lens and housing that will fit yours if interested...

Thanks Wildcat! I appreciate you taking the time to research that for me. I did some google searching, but was mainly coming up with girls bikes. Guess I just didn't dig deep enough. Thanks for the info! 8)
