I was lucking enough to buy this off of a buddy-- what do ou guys think? Is this a 39? How can you tell?

 

[Hitman44]

No thoughts?

Cool bike...cool branding! I can't help on year though except for, 'looks like pre-war'...but, you probably already knew that .

I just sold a simaler frame , 39 has the tell tale sign of the built in drop stand ears on the rear drop outs ....

Thanks man -- what do you think it is worth?

You selling it ?

You selling it ?

I am not sure. I guess it would depend. I have seen some in mint go for crazy money but this is not mint but pretty nice. I have not touched it yet. Heck, those original tires are still soft!

 

[Hitman44]

A couple people on the cabe said it could be worth close to $1,500 so who knows.

 

[A.S.BOLTNUT]

Depends on how bad some one wants it , if you wanted to sell it that would be the place.

I don't necessarily agree with that high a price, but a straight down-tube is definitely a desirable model. This may help: http://vintagecolumbiabikes.com/id79.html

It is a Schwinn not a Columbia?
