Hello all!
I am a brand new member and it's nice to see a website and members such as this. I am looking forward to corresponding with new people.
I just got my father's old J.C. Higgins bike from my parents' old barn. It is rough, but I have already started disassembly to restore it. I am having a hard time identifying the bike, though. After reading several threads on here, I'm not sure what to think, other than ask for help.
INFO: The front badge says 'Made in France JC Higgins Sears Roebuck & Co' The bottom ID badge says 'Model Number 506.4604.F' and 'Serial Number 4379'
There are no other identifying markings on the bike or components, except the shifter, which is Sturmey Archer 3 or 4 Speed.
Thank you in advance for any help on this!
Bill
