66 schwinn panther and a Firestone 500

[Modelcarjedi]

i went to check out the schwinn and the seller also had a Firestone 500. I liked them both and the price was ok so i bought them. they both need some TLC. Im trying to find some info on the Firestone any info would be great.

my 68 looks pretty mint compared to the 66

Hmm, wonder how that Schwinn wound up with a Columbia chain ring ? I like the Firestone, had one just like it many moons ago , kool bikes......

The owner said his uncle road it everyday. He probably bent the original one

Possibly a sprint fastback sprocket? It looks really large. Should say "Sprint" on it if it is.
