Says K-Mart, I’m guessing late 70s/early 80s department store bike? Not familiar with American brands.
But man, that thing was free? I bought a lot of bikes that were in rougher shape than this! Definitely envy you.
I think early to mid seventies. K-Mart had begun outsourcing in Taiwan by ‘80-‘81, and judging by the hardware (slotted screws), this may not be far off. The early 80’s brought many changes like Phillips head screws, and Allen keys. Any markings on the rear three speed hub?
