Jc Higgins

[egranado_13]

Can any one help me identify this bicycle I know it’s a J.C. Higgins but I don’t know what model it’s is but it’s most likely a colorflow.

looks like it was a colorflow at one time

Built by Murray Ohio for Sears about 1955.
Check out the Murray serial number thread.
MOU = Murray Ohio 1955.
The 45,440 may reflect a model number.

4544 0 would be the model number. Here's the 56 catalog and the decked out model is 4546. Model number increased for the 56 model year?

So it’s not a colorflow?

Any idea of how much they go for complete?

 

[Rivnut]

Probably not as much as it will cost you to find all the pieces to rebuild it. Someone has also replaced the Murray chain ring with a Schwinn cloverleaf.

Yea it has a lot of Schwinn parts but I knew it wasn’t a Schwinn .
