I went to pickup a Schwinn I bought for parts and the guy had this Ross Super Deluxe bike sitting in the yard he said he just picked it up. After trading some green stamps for it I put it on the rack with the Schwinn and drove it home. I took it off of the car and noticed that there was still a good amount of air in the tire so I rode it down the street. Shifts great, no weird noises rims are straight and true. Wow!
I took the screw out of the horn to see it's condition, it looked as if it had never had a battery in it! I put one in and IT WORKS! The metal straps in picture #7 are trouser straps! I'll clean this one up and cruise it for a while!
I'm guessing maybe 1960? Serial # 5990202, anyone know? UPDATE: I've been told by a friend on Facebook it's a 1959. Reconfirmed by date stamp on SA hub is 59.![thumbsup :thumbsup: :thumbsup:](/forum/styles/fusion/xenforo/smilies/thumbsup.gif)
