Wow nice finds.
It doesn't matter what I paid for it, it matters what it's WORTH. I never buy anything I will regret KEEPING.

The first one looks like a B6 with the colors of the tank, fenders, and guard reversed. Chrome fenders, tank, and a Schwinn rack and you'd have a correct looking Phantom. It really pops the way it is though. 8) Gary

I can only dream of the day I will score a schwinn like the brown one.. Springer and tank together.. Pretty rare in Wisconsin as far ad I have seen.. Seen a lot of old rusty bikes as decoration but if I saw a springer ride I would flip.. Really want to find a jem like that.
