I just stumbled upon this thread. I live nearby that antique shop and visited two days ago and saw the bike. I saw that it’s pretty much complete and I had to have it! They had scheduled monthly price drops on it. When I got there, they already lowered the price and I didn’t want to wait for the next price drop (which was about a month away) fearing it’ll be gone by then so I snatched it up. It’s a 4 Star Deluxe, not sure why they thought it was a Miss America but it still is a pretty cool bike. The twin headlights are just so cool! BTW it’s ugly silver house paint all over them...
I’ve already started taking it apart but these are photos of when I first brought it home

Very nice!

Love it!
I’m working on one of those myself.
It’s a Westfield built, Green & Ivory model.
You were lucky to get that ivory colored saddle with the chrome bell spring chassis.
I had to buy a whole other bike just to get that saddle.

Nice, Does it have the brake light hardware?

Yes it has the original Delta light. I threw in a D-Cell battery and it works.
