Recently picked up a vintage 10 speed from the 60's i think. I'm new to the antique/vintage bike world so forgive me for lack of knowledge or confidence right now. So I think it's from 60's it has the gear shifters down on the frame, it has a old generator head light and rear light. also the wierd thing is it only has the makers name but no model name. Meaning it only says "HAWK". It has a front name plate where the handle bars attach to the forks and that also says "HAWK". It says it's made in Japan. i want to know anything anyone can tell me about it. including value. Oh and the color is a dark dark purple. Looks black unless you are up close. I'm attaching several pictures. I hope somebody can help me out. Thank you.
