Hi guys,
I saw this thing pop up on CraigsList yesterday morning a figured I'd take a chance. Didn't realize it only stood 24" from the ground to the top of the seat tube before driving 75 miles to check it out but for $40 I thought at the very least it'd be a fun project and I could make my buddies daughter the coolest girl on the block. Trouble is, I have no idea what it is! The only markings I can find are on the rear hub and coaster brake arm which I'm assuming are the manufacturers stamp. No sign of serial numbers, especially since someone poorly went over the entire bike with red house paint sometime in the past. I'm figuring the frame geometry and styling can hopefully give away the make and I'm guessing by the purple color that is showing through on the tank and headtube dates the bike to sometime in the mid 60's or early 70's. What do you guys think?

Thanks for the help in advance!
