I'm new, so going to take some guesses. Schwinn Tornado maybe? And I've heard a lot of folks mention serial numbers on the inside of the chain stays. Try there.

You should post this in 'Bike Talk', rather than For Sale. More appropriate, and you may get a correct answer quicker.

Looks like a typhoon to me 63-66 judging from the parts. number should be on the left (non drive side) dropout.

Schwinn's have the serial numbers on the rear drop out, the head tube or on the bottom bracket. Go to http://www.angelfire.com/rant/allday101 ... odes1.html to get the year from the serial #.
If it has wheels, I'll steer it.
