I am new here and don't collect bikes - my main area of interest are antique hit and miss engines, pre-1930 tractors, and Model T Ford's. However, antique/vintage bikes are super cool as their styling, engineering and historical value are NOT lost on me. So here is the story - I live in a rural area and on my way home Monday from work I spotted a 'Free Bikes' sign in the yard of an elderly couple that used to farm. I saw this bike and a Schwinn Stingray and knew I had to grab them! The Schwinn is beat to death, I can post that later in the Schwinn forum, but for now can anyone tell me what I have. I am assuming, only from a google search, that this is a 1966 Huffy Eldorado. Other than that can you give me some more information. Also, what should I do with it? Is this a candidate for a complete restore (like is it valuable enough for that investment) OR clean it up, get it working, and leave it original OR ???? Finally, what about that banana seat? Is that original or aftermarket? Thanks in advance for the help.
