Huffy Wilmington
I was wondering if anyone knows where I could get information about a huffy wilmington I was given. The bike is an 18 speed, red and silver with an air ride front suspension. Style looks like the bike is from the 1980's. I did some google searches but all I get is info about wilmington South Carolina.

I doubt that any 18 speed bike has an " air ride front suspension". Air forks are found on high end mountain bikes selling for $2000+, not department store mountain bikes. Until you have more than 10 posts you will not be able to include a picture, but 18 speed mountain bikes are not collectable.

Have you contacted Huffy? I cannot find a "Wilmington" model, but it could have been a store brand or maybe the name is something else? In any case, it probably doesn't have a lot of monetary value, but so what? It is a bike, fix it up and ride it.

^ That saddle looks like one of those noseless ones. I wonder how anyone rides one of those.
