so i picked up this murray missle recently for a steal. ill post up the serial shortly, but i think its a 66 as per the M06 on the drop out. the frame has been touched up and the seat appears to be a pre war troxel which i really like. im going to clean it up and lightly bring it up to my standards. i picked up a late eighties western flyer replica with this one as a package ill do a thread on soon as well.

any input, as im just getting into the hobby, is appreciated. Anyone know if the rear hub is og? the rim is but i was supprised to see a fichel and sachs hub. on to the pics....


as found...
