I’ve had this ladies bike for several years and can’t seem to give it away, so I’m going to tinker with it and build a swap meet rat bike.

Not that it really matters, but...does anyone have an idea of what I have here? First thought was Schwinn, but the chainwheel doesn’t look right...

The chainring is mid-50s Huffman, for sure, and I kinda get the same vibe from the rest of the bike, though from an earlier era. I'll do some digging.

EDIT: '55 Customliner?

Looks like a good starting point for a gender-bender. Sculpt your own tank the way TRM did.

EDIT:
The serial number may help ID it.

It's a Huffman, here's a 47 model, looks like the same guard.
