Just (literally 5 hours ago) bought Windcheetah #295 from an estate and am beginning the process of making it rideable. I needs maintenance items like chain, tires, cables, etc., as well as a good cleaning.

A couple of items have me perplexed:

I'd really like to replace or at least thoroughly clean the rear axle bearings and haven't figured out how to remove them. Simple press-on?

I'm going to need to source or fabricate seat mounts. What was there were rubber bushings with threaded rods extending from each side, acting as a bit of isolation and suspension. A couple of them have fallen apart. Are they the original design?

Any idea when it might have been built?

Thanks for any help you can offer.
