Found a beautiful Western Flyer with motor (that i dont think is original but the seller does). I think its a 52, but I dont know. Serial is MON 22x10 123646. There is some dry rot on the tires but nothing going through- I think I could ride it for a while before needing to replace them. Here are some pictures. And the guy wants $475. What do you think? (Also- I think the ornament is for something else, yes?

Thanks Kevyleven007 for responding! I missed out. Some crazy person showed up and offered him $600 for it! It wasn't meant to be. I've decided to find a motor and trick out my old Huffy that has a similar body style as the old flyers. (Nowhere near as cool as the Flyer, but I already own it and FREE is king!) Now I am on the hunt for engines. Any advice there would also be appreciated. Ill post pix of my Huffy when I can.
