Barn find...need help identifying

[security22]

I need help identifying this barn find. I plan to customize it and use it as something to ride around the neighborhood.

I wouldn't customize that bike. I think it's a Aggie. Very desirable bike.

Are you also saying I shouldn't put an engine on it and ride? Or just not mess with painting it? I wasn't going to modify the frame.

Any idea the year range? 70's, 80's?

What I meant was I wouldn't be cutting up the frame. Not sure how good the paint is but that old paint buff's out nice. You can search the threads for more information. It would be 1970's.

Late 60s - early 70s...could be Aggie, but wheels and welded stop for scrub might suggest it started life as a Mickey bike. Look at pics of both.

Thanks for your input...I'm new to mini bikes.

Yea I agree its the last version Mickey bike actually has a bunch of mods done to it, but looks like its fixable, mine was a hot mess when I bought the frame from a junkyard, It had a grant GT steering wheel bolted to it rather than the handlebars Heres mine after I got it all fixed back up. These shared frames with the Aggie 97 at the time, I believe It was 1969 possibly bleed into 1970.

Great looking bike! Are you going to mount an engine and ride?

I had an engine I built on it for awhile, but I wanted to upsize to a 5hp so I took it off and sold it, That was a few years ago, bike is just sitting around collecting dust as a roller for time being......not much love for completing mini bikes currently. Heres what I had built and had on it (the video I used to sell the engine):
