Coca-Cola Huffy!

Spotted this bicycle in Morgantown WV last weekend....

The owner of a vintage shop had this in his shed! I had never seen one and he pulled it out after we stopped in to eye up a 1940's cruiser. Thought it was pretty cool and wanted to share. Wasn't sure if anyone knew any history of Coca-cola and Huffy.

These were a mid '80s thing, though I haven't seen a girl's version before! The boy's has a plastic 'tank'.

Not worth much, even though people envision big bucks anytime they find one. Everybody bought them and never rode them.

Probably worth more to a Coca Cola collector than a bike person. The build quality of these is seriously lacking. I didn't want to use the word "crappy" at the chance of offending someone! V/r Shawn

True-- the Coca Cola brand has been an American novelty and name-icon more than anything.

Peace and love

Lol! I was fooled by the Huffy collaboration, then. Thanks for the heads up

Peace and love and bikes~~
