this is my latest find on CL ,the original owner was "trying to make some room in the attic" as he put it.
all original everything except for some swedish made wheel lock. it has a little suface rust (it was near the coast) but it should
clean up real good and so far everything works he even gave me the owners manual and sales slip from Chula Vista Schwinn.
Score and also he had a 72 continental so I took that too they are almost twinns 'cept for the curved seat tube.
here is the sprint in as found condition

Nice ! :mrgreen:

I have one of these that will not be quite the same when it is finished, and hope to get that far sometime in the not too distant future.

Mine didn't start out quite as nice as this though... :roll:

I am going for a little less gearing...

Nice, love the color. I think these are/will be really coming on, especially with so many being torn down. Most of them are so abused in the first place, not this one!
