i cant identify this

i am picking up a bike this week
it is a single speed hawthorne , but i cant figure out what year or model
the closest thing i can find is a british made hawthorne hercules 3 speed

the bike i,m buying is
gold in colour
it has 2 side by side top tubes
has a long wedge shaped rack on the back
hawthorne written down the front of the seat tube
the hawthorne badge on the front is metal

the guy at the bike shop thinks its a 60s model but isn,t sure
the only image i could find on the internet is a british news paper ad

EDIT ( found it 1968 )

actually , i,ve been finding some rollfast bikes that look almost identical , but it is a hawthorne

man , i,m usually pretty good at finding stuff , but i just cant find anything on this one .

once i pick it up , i,ll take some pics , i want to make a hotroded tracker out of it .

not sure if i really wanna put a gas engine on this one ( possibly a schwinn type electric )
the bike is in wicked shape ( only it could use some new rubber ) even the seat is good , it has no cracks

man i mean it you gotta see the bikes in this shop , he has wayyyy more than whats shown on his site
