JC Higgins girls bicycle believe to be 1950 Color Flo. We have the boys matching as well gotta figure that out too. We need some parts for the boys bike so if anyone has anything please let us know! Thank you!
The Higgins girl's model is not 1950... it is newer. It is missing the original headlight that fits on the bracket on the front fender. The boy's model shown is also not the same year as the girl's (older). Somebody has shoved a Rollfast chainguard on this bicycle. You will note that the front fork is different from the girl's model (older design and missing all of the actuator clips assemblies). And while today's collectors seem to label all of these bicycles as "Color Flo(w)" they actually had several different model names. The exact years can easily be determined from the appearance, equipment and the model numbers as well as other features. NBHAA.com has all factory records for these bicycles.
Nice bike like it.
