This is one of 3 youth size bikes I own.
Back in 2006, I had a friend over and we saw my dad pull up in our driveway with something in the back of his truck. He had been on a farm that one of his friends owns and they where walking around the barns and he found this. The reason he got it is because it was like one that he road when he was a kid. He gave it to me. It was in good shape for being in a barn for 35 years but it was all messed up. The chain was all bunched up in a big ball by the back wheel. I have never road it but I just love it overall.
