Just a quick one as it is half-past one in the morning in the UK....The number that you have seen tells me that it was produced at the Kirkby (Liverpool) plant in 1965 and was assembled in week 27, and was the 432nd one that week!...Are there any signs that the bike was distributed by HUFFY?..ken...

I've taken a few pix's of the bike, its a Moulton Speed 4. It has a 4 speed Surmey Archer internal hub. I remember that when new, it had wicker baskets that attached to the front & rear racks.

I found a sticker indicating that it was Made in Great Britain, and another showing all the patents & their numbers that were assigned to the bike design. I also found a serial number on the upper seat tube. The number is K65270432. I'm guessing that this indicates it was made in 1965. Perhaps the 432 unit that year?
