- comments ? questions ? advice? any helpful info on a date ? ect????
 
I can't offer any info help but I wanted to say it sure cleaned up nice. To bad the rear lens is broken but from what I've read here that was a common problem with all plastic items on the older Huffy bikes.
 
That's most probably 1966, and it looks all original and hardly ridden. That's common with girl's bikes.
 
Is there any replacement lenses available ? Anyone remade them ? Also am I missing a tank As well ? Any help finding my missing parts would be appreciated
