I found what appears to be a 1987 Schwinn Cruiser on FB marketplace recently, for 45 bucks. My plans are to build this as a strandie/bmx cruiser type bike. The lavender color is fun and lends itself to something wild. I'm probably not using the basket or fat-butt saddle...

Our last A2 in stock, my friend wanted the bike with gears for the hilly terrain in his town. We start with a frame and Red Menace fork installed. There will be some tweaks to make it work as a klunker type bike as it currently has 110mm rear spacing.
