I just acquired this frame and it has the serial #1215561 under the crank casing. I ran the serial # through the Schwinn-Cruisers website and it came back as a 1957. Now I'm baffled as to what the model is. Can anyone help with my dilemma?

Being the serial number is on the crank casing it would be pre-1952 I don't see that number in there unless you mistook the first number for a letter. Here's a link to the catalogs and serial charts.

Looks a lot like this Bantam Model J-66

Could also be a spitfire but the paint looks different

Flying star had the same frame but only in 24" and 26" and again different markings
