There's a recall for one of their models here: https://www.cpsc.gov/Recalls/2002/cp...and-roadmaster. The front rim is 36 hole and the rear is 32. This has a quill stem. All these things point to some front end crash, fixed with cruddy replacements. Who knows what else has been swapped. The pics are pretty dark and blurry. I can no longer recommend buying this.

This is also a larger frame than your A-1. Maybe stick with what you have for now.
