Help needed please.

Hi guys, help needed please on this bike.
It was salvaged from the local dump and hopefully my son will start racing it. Can anyone tell me exactly what BMX it is. It has Huffy pedals on it, so it may be one of these.
Also i want to remove the giro stem and bars and fit a new headset with a new stem. The brakes will also need replacing as they dont work at all. Does anyone know what crank it is, there are no clues at all.
Are the headsets a standard size to all bikes????
Piccys below....
Also does anyone have any black bits that would fit this, headset, bars and a rear brake including lever.
Cheers guys
Andy.
Cheers chaps.

i think it is a huffy!
they did a really budget bike a couple of years ago £120 i think. it was an awful thing! looks like its got a few added extras on it now though!
if its racing you want to get him doing, no offence but i'd put it back where you found it
Lazarou:
I wouldn't say it needs new brakes, maybe just cables and a clean up and re-grease. Same with the stem.

Cheers mate, he's got to start somewhere though and i'd rather he wrecked this than a decent bike that cost a couple of quid. Also if he really enjoys the racing scene then we can progress on to better rides.
