Information please

I have an opportunity to buy a bike just like the one pictured. Still has the delta light and looks complete. The seat has lost it's original covering. The problem is that I don't know what model it is or what I should give for it. I've always been in to the flightliners and spaceliners. This would be something cool and different for me. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The Western Auto Western Flyer shown looks like a Monark built bike.

Monark was acquired by Huffman in the early 1950’s; my WAWF’s were built by Huffman about 1955 & 58.

What do you figure is an approximate year for this bike?

It needs some love. I'll take my time and do my best to return it to it's former glory.

Buy it, it is a sweet bike and the price is very fair.

The Huffman/Monark merger happened in late 1957, articles at the time said that H. would make Monarks for the west coast markets. But surviving bikes suggest that they used up existing Monark parts, substituting Huffy parts as they ran out. The OP's Flyer looks to be all Monark.
