I bought this bike from dogdart. He had bought it last year, and I wanted it as soon as I saw it. But he sold it to Black Crown. A few months later, he traded back, then a few months later, sold it to me. All I did was painted the front forks,and the tank, and added the white stripe to the rack. Had to grease the wheel bearings, and scrub the wheels and tires.( I hate dirty whitewalls. Here she is, my 55 Huffy with a Dial-your-ride front end. Sure rides sweet
