This totally captures the aspirational vibe of a burgeoning young car guy in the early 70’s. “I can’t have that Camaro with Polyglas tires yet, but I can have THIS.” Goodyear saw it too.

You’re exactly right, I always wanted but never got Cheater Slicks like some Huffys also Sears bikes had. Amazing where values are w/ a lot of Muscle bikes now although it’s somewhat understandable.  ~ Pete .

Not sure who made the rear cheater slick style tire on my Huffy Dragster II. Mark (the fellow who restored it) said it was the hardest part to source.

Not sure why pics didn't load. Likely operator error.

I had a Schwinn "LEMON PEELER" with a rear slick. I think it was a Goodyear but not positive.
