1955 Huffy Radiobike, ready to ride. This bike has the 2-speed Bendix hub and handlebar shifter; the inside of the radio tank is very clean with all parts intact; the radio currently does not work; the interior tank schematic is perfect; exterior antennae and down tube mount is present; battery cable and plug is good; rear battery box is good with no corrosion, but needs some paint touch-up on the ends where someone did some work?; battery box needs mounting screws(4); Volume and Tuning knobs are good; the radio on/off switch works, but no key; original saddle has some front/side dings; front Delta light is in ruff shape, but its all there, and it works; correct Goodyear Wing Foot tires are in nice rideable shape; original paint is not bad, but not great, I have only cleaned the bike with Flitz, so the paint might get better with some more attention; all graphics and pinstripes are good; original grips are nice; Wald pedals are period correct but maybe not Huffy issued; original wheels were in poor shape and the 2-speed did not work, these wheels are from a 50’s Columbia, an exact match to the Huffy wheels, and you probably would not have known if I did not tell you; the Bendix cable and shifter was replaced with a non-rusted set; cool LABL(Los Angeles Bicycle License) sticker on the seat tube; the chrome on the fork crown is peppered; no major dents or dings in the tank, chain guard, battery box or fenders, everything is nice and straight. The whirl-flector is not included, but available as an add-on for $40.
