If it came with a chainguard, that would help narrow it down. Or if it has a brake bridge in the rear and a brake hole in the fork, that would narrow it down to bikes that could have come with 3-speeds. Also, if you find any decals underneath the repaint, that would help too.

Got a picture?

Does the black look original?

Are the handlebars Schwinn? If so which style?

All boys bikes had black as an option. http://www.trfindley.com/flschwinn_1961 ... 63_07.html
