what's up fellas,
I was lurking on Cl and saw an add for an "old schwinn", the asking price was very reasonable compared to other prices on Cl, so I called the guy up and made an offer. I'm pretty sure that it is an old schwinn, just not sure about the year. It has a cool old stem, and the bars are marked schwinn, The rims and tires are 26'' though. The house paint on it is super thick and I can't find a SN yet. I have a few things in mind for this frame, I might looking at getting some 24'' skywat mag wheels and adding a nanner seat and apes, or i might use my 24'' trike rear end and build a mean looking trike.
BTW, what would you guys feel comfortable with paying for a bike like this?
Anyways, here are some quick shots that I took....
What do you guys think?
Pretty sure the seat was recovered, it's going to my parts pile anyway (unless anyone wants it)
