Western flyer x53 on FB marketplace

Happy new year, folks!

I found this listing yesterday while searching around for my missing headlight. The listing says 1953.Belongs to original owner and it's in Sugarland, TX.
I'd really, really like to buy it for myself but I just bought one of these about 2 weeks ago and so I'm posting it here to see if anybody else is interested. This one is nice and complete so it'd be a shame to see it parted out even though I know there's always a huge interest in that.
If someone here bought it and that's the road it was going down, I'd certainly be interested in the light, pedals, and maybe the seat if we could work a deal.

Thank you

I wish I was not half a country away!

I'm about 4 hours away from it. I drove about 7 hours to pick mine up from Lufkin. That's what's driving me crazy. Another semi-local bike in original survivor condition for a reasonable price.

I pulled the trigger on it. I blame y'all for not stepping up! I'll be heading down to Houston some time in February to pick it up. Couldn't resist the urge to care for two original owner x53's.
