Thanks Sam and Bricycle for posting. Sam we will get that seat from you soon.

Hi all, I am looking for a Ross Convertible Kids Crusier Bike with 13 inch wheels for my son. Red or Blue would be fine. I would like to get it locally near Portland, Oregon. This is our son, Carston, next to one at a swap meet in Clark Co. Washington. We went on a Whizzer ride that...

We have two Whizzer's and would like to be able to take our son, Carston (nearly 4 years old) with us. We saw two of these at a local old bicycle swap meet but did not decide to get one until after the event. I missed out on one on eBay by a couple dollars. Here is the one that was on...

Hi all the Becker's here, We had a wonderful time at the Iron Ranch. We had to fight the rain but between rain drops the turn out was pretty good. The Whizz-in had eight Whizzers and one motorcycle on the ride. We cut the ride short because of the weather and got soaked on the way back...

Got the bike I got the bike over the weekend. Serial # F03595 Acw What year is it? Thanks

Serial # FO35 5 not exactly sure 26 inch Badge Major Looking to buy this weekend and need to know what year. The owner says he was told it is from the 1930s but I would like to know for sure. Thanks, Melissa

tank bike Thanks, I wish we had started it earlier too.

JC Higgins Your frame is very intriguing to me. How much? Do you have a head badge for it for sure? Thanks, Melissa

JC Higgins Tank bike Do you know anything else about this bike? Year? Is it a 26 inch frame? What is the measurement from... ? Melissa

Update BWBiker aka Brad, came out last Saturday to help me with the1952 Hawthorne. We have been trying to get the goose neck out but it is stuck, stuck, stuck even with heat and penetrating oil. We will keep trying. Thanks for your help Brad. On Friday we took the Hawthorne frame to Bill...

Add Whizzer motor Let's add a Whizzer motor to it and then it really will be a Motorbike, LOL. Melissa

I have a 1952 Hawthorne 24 inch boys bike that probably had a tank. I wanted to restore it and put a Whizzer motor on it but it is too small. So I would like a very rough, inexpensive, pre-war or very early post war tank styled bike that is 26 inch that I can put a Whizzer motor in (not a...

Please Post pic here too. I like this bike. Is it a 26 inch frame? How is the tank attached? I was going to take my 24 inch 1952 Hawthorne boys bike, restore it, and a Whizzer motor to it but it is too big for my bike. It has to be a 26 inch frame to fit. Thanks, Melissa

Post pics I don't currently have a Schwinn but seeing a true build sheet would be awesome. Please post pictures. Melissa

More pics please Could you get some more pictures of your bike. I could really use them for restoration purposes. Thanks, Melissa

Not a Roadmaster Your bike looks like mine. Mine was identified as a ?1952 AMF Cleveland Welding built Montgomery Ward?s Hawthorne Junior Unequipped (Or Tank) Model Bicycle? The sprocket is called a "Flying Heart". This is what Phil Marshall told me about the bike... The bike was...

1952 Hawthorne Geoff, Thanks for your comments and suggestions. Just to let you know our family has a full do-it-yourself auto restoration shop that includes a paint booth, welding equipment, and machine shop (with a lathe and mill). Modifying is not a problem as long as we have some...

Sorry forgot to say thank you. Melissa Becker

Hi all, I have a ?1952 AMF Cleveland Welding built Montgomery Ward?s Hawthorne Junior Unequipped (Or Tank) Model Bicycle? so it is a 24 inch. I am in the process of restoring this bike to make it motorized with a Whizzer motor but I am having some restoration problems and will be in need...

Whizzers at the Iron Ranch 2009 pics Here are some pics from the Iron Ranch Swap meet. Phil, perhaps you will remember this... 498885[/ATTACH]"] 498887[/ATTACH]"] My husband, Chris, is on the left and his Green Whizzer "Gremlin" is the third one from the left. All seven bikes went for...

More Questions Is there a model for my bike, such as Roadmaster, Comet, Etc.? If I were to look for a tank, what words should I use in my search and where should I search? Ebay of course but where else? I restore old pedal cars and I have found sites beyond eBay that sells them in...

Thanks Phil I was at the Iron Ranch meet on Saturday too. Perhaps you saw us. My husband had his 2006 Green Whizzer, I had my bike frame in the back of our 1989 S-10 Smurf Blue pickup, and we had our toddler son with us. Does anyone have any pictures of a bike like mine? I would like to...

Thanks Herman. I was wondering if that was a "C". I look forward to Phil's analysis. I have been searching the WWW high and low and the closest I have come up with is a bike on eBay. It is a ladies Hawthorne but the seller does not know much else about it. 498868[/ATTACH]"]

Hi all, Newby to the site. A friend of ours bought a 24 inch Hawthorne at a Swap Meet in Brooks, Oregon last year and gave the bike to me. I plan restore the bike and have Bill Green in Washington State help me build a motor for it. My husband has a 2006 Whizzer and wants a riding buddy...
