Memory Lane goodies....

[Terry66]

So, I drove up to Memory Lane on Friday. I was a little disappointed as I was looking for a nice Huffman, but nothing that caught my eye or that I was willing to buy. The good news is that I found a tank light for my '64 Firestone 500 and a tank for my Higgins Bike Build Off bike. I had been looking for both for about 6 months. I found this crusty old Huffy with a tank and my light. It was missing the seat, bars, etc. I asked the guy what he wanted for it and he said $15. I really didn't need another project and have spent the last month cleaning out my garage, so I told him I would give him the $15 and take the light and he could keep the rest. The light isn't perfect, so I painted it "chrome". It is complete and in decent shape. I am guessing it still works. Going to look into having it replated or just keep my eyes out for a better one. Here it is mounted to my tank.

I also found a WWII gas mask. Not sure why I bought it, but its cool.

Here is my 1964 Firestone 500 all decked out with the new headlight.

Firestone looks great....was nice seeing you again.

 

[Terry66]

Nice seeing you too Jeff....the Firestone looks killer thanks to that 63 Huffy you sold me! Dang, that was one clean bike. The wheels, crank, bars, etc...You know, I have Ballooners, middleweights and musclebikes and I swear this Huffy built is my favorite bike. I just love the "500" reference being a car guy...and the red/black/chrome looks is so nice.
