Anything here worth saving or on the scrap pile it goes.

These are the other bikes from the auction, I looked at them today and can't decide if they are worth the time, labor, added parts. I paid $60 for the pr. I would probably be over my head if I put any time and money into them. Help me decide, what do ya think. Scrap, rat bike, yard art, parts, etc. I just don't know. THANKS

Yard Art! Oh I get it...it's a joke!
Future riders in my humble opinion. Save a bike start a new Caber....

The straight bar Higgins has a good look to it. Service, tires and and ride.

I hear you. I would probably try to flip them and sell on my local CL, or FB Marketplace. Probably not worth your valuable time to do more to them.
Good luck!

Decided to throw together a rat bike today, now the Higgins is a rider. Hardest part was splicing a chain to fit, and making rear fender stays. I was surprised how easy everything came apart. Love that PB Blaster.

You could always get them ridable and give to a couple of kids that parents can't afford even a used bike.

what is the rear hub on that Roadmaster JR.? is it a sachs duomatic?

I don't know, I'll look tomorrow. The hard rubber rear tire is missing some chunks, I thought of putting air tires on it.

I like what you did here! For me, just seeing something ridable again is a good thing. Looks great!
