Need help with Newsboy Special

[ratina]

I`ll post some pics tomorrow of my original Firebolt and Newsboy. The Firebolt is mid weight and the Newsboy is a ballooner. Im not sure of the age difference though.

Cool looking forward to seeing the pictures. Theres a serial number chart online ( I can get the link if you need it ) so you can figure out the years.

Todays C/L find Columbia News Boy Special

I know very little about this bike, but the guy i bought it from said he had been riding it up to this year when he bought a new one.

I saw it yesterday and was going to look @ it around 1:00 today. Looks like it will clean up nice. Great find.
