Wife’s pixie

[Tomato John]

Got this little pixie from my father-in-laws barn. Was my wife’s that she learned to ride on. Was her older brothers first. Then her dad repainted the pink and white. Going to try to get it back to it’s original state for my little nephew. Just curious what the year was. Looks like everything is original but don’t know for sure. Cute little thing though

the date should be on the inside crank.

The fork may also be dated with a very small stamping on the inside of the left leg right above the axle slot.

Looks like a 75. Is that the year?

Heres a shot after rubbing off top layer of paint. I see two sets ofnumbers but can’t make them out.

reading it with fork leg up, it looks like an 8-5. August 75? When did the Wife get the bike, is that the approximate year? Also the last 2 digits of the serial is 75.

Pics of the crank. Assuming fist one is the year?

Yes that would have put her about two years old.

Looks like a 1975 issue.

Probably a dumb question. But I haven’t figured out how this comes apart?
