Ross Polo Bike, I think

Finally riding a big boys bike
A friend's dad is cleaning out the garage to sell his house. The friend showed me pics of a bunch of bikes and asked if they were worth anything. I asked them to put this one aside for me.

Fork crown, frame design, head tube/headbadge holes, sprocket, and serial all suggest Ross built.

That sticker on the seat tube says Golden Isles Hot Rod, which gets no Google hits, so I have no idea.

After picking at the tape on seat a little, it says RALLY with a pair of crossed flags. A Google search for "rally banana seat" gets me pics that suggest that was a Sears accessory.

I have some Ross bits and pieces in the boneyard that will help me start getting this together. Also hoping that maybe @jungleterry or someone else knowledgeable will see this and check in, maybe give me an idea what the headbadge and guard and seat/sissy might have looked like...
