Don't think a Flightliner, all the ones I have seen have two top rails this has one. But it does have the drop outs of a Flightliner. safe to say its a early 60's Higgins of some sort

Just seen a flightliner, and it has the same dropouts

another thing is the main sprocket, I looked at all the AMF's and this one looks completely different. Its smaller diameter, and has a series of holes around, big small, big small. Looked closer too to the hub, its a Bendix red stripe RB2, spins like a top and breaks nice. wiped off the...

yeah I will post pics (my camera is at the office)

It also has a Bendix red stripe (One Stripe) rear hub. A quick wipe and it looks like new. With the rear dropouts again. Instead of being rounded like I have seen on most bikes, they seem to be kind of a rounded arrowhead shape (that's what I ment about being elongated.

The weather was good enough to get out a ride for the first time this season. Legs are sore but it felt great to get out there. Still trying to find someone that can cut diamondplate for the flat tank then I am going to start a new bike.

Before the next build I need to finish off the first one. Want to cut a flat tank out of diamond plate. and i am in search of a iron cross rear light and the first build should be done. LOL Then again there is always something cool to put on the bike. :mrgreen:

Well the weather is changing and I am getting the itch to go and ride. Thinking about buying another Big Daddy and doing a different modify with it. Maybe a adult sized Stingray.

The is a bike shop here in Lincoln Park called Al Petri and Sons. They have been around since the 40's. That is where i found all of the hod rod parts for the bike as well as the spikes.

I add spikes to the fenders today.
