Here is my 50s(?) J.C.Higgins. . . . $10 from Goodwill. As far as I can tell nothing is missing and the only thing that is not stock is the front tire. . . but it is still time correct.










I have this same bike, mine is from 1961.

Here's one I picked up yesterday. Thinking about building a board tracker out of it.

Islnder102, your bike by the Serial Number should be a red 1959 boys 26 inch. There were two versions of Flightliners in 1959. The top model was the Fully Equipped Version, and then a cheaper version that was called the J.C. Higgins Equipped Flightliner Bicycle. Your bike was sold for $49.95 and weighed in at 59 pounds.
