I bought some bikes off a guy from CL last week. He was a motorcycle guy and inherited some property with bicycles and motorcycles in the garage. I bought a Columbia and some other bikes from him. This bike was in with all the motorcycle stuff and he threw it in with the other bikes I bought. Can anyone help me out with some information on it?

 
I see a possible Murray chain ring, atleast it looks like one I have.
Other than that I'm clueless, but it is very cool.

Apparently you have a Murray with an AMF sprocket on it.:grin:
 
Looks like the frame and seatpost are the only things not changed out. Cycletruck of some kind I'll search around to see if I can find a match. Any serial number on it?
 
I'll agree with Roadmaster. Here's a 40 model, but the dropouts look horizontal. Maybe yours is an earlier model. The serial number might tell.
Unless the moped forks were just the right length, they went to a lot of trouble to make the fork tube long enough for that frame.
I'd love to find a frame like that.

Thanks for your help. The serial number is D06117.

Some of the CWC experts here may be able to find the year for you.
This is listed as a 37 or 38 model, looks more like the dropouts on yours.
