Not sure what the going rate is for one of those but whats a happy wife with a big smile worth? Looks pretty nice.

 

[deorman]

Not bad at all, looks to be in great shape. A new bike of that quality would cost at least that much.

 

[mikesbikes36]

may b a little high ....but that smile on ur ladies face is worth the extra !!!! gotta keep momma happy .... (hope that ur wife or g/f n not ur daughter ) but ya gotta keep them happy too ....LOL

 

[RAIDERS1]

ITS MY DAUGHTER....

you did good it's a rider and you did not had to hunt for parts to get it like that it's like a turn key ready . and look's good !

FABULOSO

 

[Rat Rod]

I'd say you did pretty good if it's an all original bike as it appears to be.

You'd pay that much for a new base model Electra cruiser and it wouldn't have the vintage cool factor that that bike has. :wink:

 

[RAIDERS1]

THANKS!....I GOT THE BIKE FROM A HUSBAND....HIS WIFE HAD PASSED AWAY... SHE HAD IT WHEN IT WAS NEW...SHE TOOK GOOD CARE OF THE BIKE..

 

[Rat Rod]

It almost looks like skiptooth bike.

In my opinion that's the perfect color scheme for a girls bike too.

All polished and detailed out, I don't think you'd have any trouble getting your money back out of it if you had to.

Judging by her Smile, NO!!!

Nice Bike $300
Smooth ride on an Antique, Free
Great Smile on your Daughter, Price Less

 

[Fireproof]

That Schwinn fits your daughter just right, and as Deorman and Rat Rod pointed out, you cannot get the quality in a new bike for the price you paid for it. Don't sell it . . . clean it up and take your daughter with you on some rides! :wink:

 

[RAIDERS1]

THANKS YOU ALL FOR THE COMMENTS " A BIKE IS MEANT TO RIDE NOT TO SALE"

 

[RAIDERS1]

IT IS A SKIP TOOTH....MY FIRST OL SCHWINN...( WELL... MY DAUGHTERS NOW)

 

[Fireproof]

" A BIKE IS MEANT TO RIDE NOT TO SALE"

RIGHT ON!!!!! If yer up this way, you are invited to ride with us.

 

[jerrykr]

that smile is worth 300 bucks, you got the bike for FREE!

besides, you could not build it for what you paid. SCORE!

 

[slacker]

Wow! That bike is the business! Great color scheme and amazing condition. I would be happy to find that for $300, which would be roughly what it would bring in my area, too.
