87' Huffy SE
today I went to a flea market to look at some stuff, and I see a vintage road bike looking at me saying buy me! so i looked at the price, $5.40! 
and it is fully rideable and no rust! so I bought it and brought it home and filled up the tires, the tubes kept air! I was feeling pretty scyked by now 
but when I took it out the sidewall started flaking off, so I went to my LBS to get some tires. 15$ for 2 not bad so after I got it all good I told my dad to come with me on it's maiden voyage! He rides a 1974 road bike. All I got to say is this bike is awesome, except the frame "tweaks" when I get on and off [kinda moves] but my dad says thats normal. This is the best 6$ I spent ever! Now I can get to school faster!

After studying the scerial number for a while I fount out that it's most probialy a 78' NOT a 87! the 87 came from a sticker under the seat.
