I make this a short story (lol).
I owned this bike since 1977.It has been repainted so many times since
1977.I stripped the frame/forks.Hoping to find the original color,no luck.

Does anyone know what seat would have been on this?

When i was a kid my uncle removed the original seat & put on a BMX style seat.If you look at the rear drop out,you will see 1 hole on each side.Kinda of like it might of had the Wide BMX box stlye seat with sissy bar??

Anyway,i have the "cast" or "magnesium mags" already repainted.They are Lester mags.if someone needs pics of the mags,i will post them.

Most of all,i just would like to find out what seat should be on it & what model
name it is.Any help would be great,thanks.
Oh yeah..VIN# is stamped on the head tube,"2425??93"

This is the style of seat(first pic) that i think was originally on it(not for sure)because the entire time i rode the bike it had a "regular" style seat.(second pic)

that bike did come with a regular single BMX seat on it. But I would think the "loaf" style saddle was an option as well. the same model was also sold in Sears stores as "the Screamer". it had a unique fork and handle bar arrangement that was all aluminum. I have a pair that I mounted on and old LRV Moxie. here are some pics I managed to gather while doing that project.

The LRV Moxie monoshock I ended up using the fork and bars on. I had to fabricate the whole steer tube assembly to make it work.
