Finally riding a big boys bike
Cute little VeloKing trike our neighbor saved from the dump. What’s the going rate on one of these?

Very cool truss rod trike! Looks like it has a trailer hitch too!
Not sure on value, 200?

Looks like this is another Velo King from the mid/late 1930s. Well worth rescuing from the dump even though in rougher shape. Not sure what value I'd put on it. That front pedal crank missing a pedal has probably rounded off inside the hub. The crank end was normally square to fit the square opening in the hub. After several years of hard pedaling the square points on the crank metal would start rounding off until it would just spin free inside the hub. This was a weakness with Velo King tricycles from the later 1930s until end of production.
