Huffy Red Hot
Hey all, new here. Curious as to what this bike may be worth? It has a gear shift, speedometer, sissy bar, original tires. Looks to he pretty complete. Its in pretty in pretty good shape over all. Thoughts? I can't post pics until I have 10 posts.

If it was in very good condition, someone might give $150 for it as its kitschy and would be a cool bike to hang up in a mancave, bar, TGI Fridays or something.
Although a reasonable facsimile of a Schwinn, the Huffys dont retain the value of the Schwinns to collectors, But as mentioned, for a cool wall hanging, might be worth something

As with most muscle bikes just not a great bike ride or build quality even the nicer Schwinns weren't good bikes. So the value is really only as a collectors display piece the slightly plainer Huffy's just to get the prices the Schwinn's and some of the more interesting muscle bikes. I would agree on the $150 or so value.

Thanks for the info guys. I knew it wasn't as collectible as a stingray. But in my head I thought it may be worth $400 or so. I suppose I over shot a little. I wish I could post pictures. Its really cool with the flamed seat and shifter.
