1948 Hawthorne

I have this beautiful, to my best knowledge, 1948 Hawthorne. It has been powder coated and is perfect. I wish it was original paint but it was to far gone with multiple house paint to leave alone. All the parts are original pieces the best that I can tell other than the tires and grips. Even the seat is original. We did have new foam put in on the seat though. The horn is operable and the lights could be with minor work. I will be selling this bike. I've had my fun with it and it's time to move on. Please let me know your thoughts and opinions. If you have more info on this specific bike, I'd be happy to hear it.

Thank you for looking!!!!
