Nice pick for sure! The Elgin looks to be a '38-'39 built by Murray. I looks like they cannibalized a later JC Higgins for the truss rods, fork and seat but a sweet bike indeed.
 
The Elgin has a musselman "aircooled" rear hub. Not as preferred as the new departure that everyone loves, but a very cool looking hub. I've got a very nice polished one that's going on my Shelby (as incorrect as that may be).
 
On the coaster brake arm it's got Elgin on it so I just assumed it was a Elgin hub thanks for the help if you were to sell it what would be the value on it ?
