ID help and question

[rollfaster]

Looks like I’m going to try and help do a restoration on this tricycle for a friend. Can anyone possibly tell by the pic what make it might be? And second, is there a good source for replacement tires? I still need to get the sizes since I don’t have the trike in my possession yet. Thanks a bunch!! @ridingtoy

AMF Junior looks like '50s trike. Shouldn't be too hard to get parts for. V/r Shawn

So I found a $8.00 donor trike for the wheels/tires, grips and fender. Here’s a before and after pic.

Beautiful restoration! Looks like it was just purchased brand new.

My baby brother, an August 1953 model, Received that exact tri-cycle for a birthday or Christmas gift ~1955. My 4 oldest boys (1970-1976) inherited it from uncle and rode it to death!

Thanks guys, I’m really happy with the way it turned out. Just wish I had an original fender for it. This one fits quite a bit different.
