I have always wanted one of these Western Flyer X-53's, so I brokedown and bought one from a guy in KC a while back. It arrived in 2 boxes the other day. Not as good as it looks,this bike was rode hard and put away wet, if you know what I mean. It is covered with road tar, grime and rust. Wheel and crank bearings are shot. At some point someone tried to polish it and it has hard dried white polish in every crack and crevis. It will require mucho elbow grease ... I will clean and recondition it and put it back together as an original survivor. Will post more pics when I get it rollin again. rr
