If you know what the girls bike is, that would be awesome too. Or if you even know what year they might be, that would help. Thanks! The serial # was on the boys frame was on the bottom of the bottom bracket and is 484428 with a slight space in between the 4844 and the 28
 
nice score and my favorite price ! the girls looks to be murray or sears the other not sure about but might be murray aswell ?
 
ya, I was thinking a Spaceliner but didn't see a year that looked like it, still unsure on the boys frame
 
that's a murray frame for sure. late 50's i'd say. it's the exact same frame as my 1957 murray meteor-flite i just built up last week. here's a pic for reference...

ya, they are Schwinn blade forks, not sure if I'm gonna use them. I would be willing to trade both of them for a pair of forks with a truss rod, or Monark style springer(hehe).

that is super nice, that is totally my frame, I was thinking going Boardtrack on this build
:D
 
the rear drop outs on the other bike remind me of the drop outs on my 1970's girls ross compact. (bicycle chain corp) which is actually stamped on the drop out.

i know yours is older, but i'd be looking towards murry/bicycle chain corp.
