Thank you! I got it back in 1983,for $20. Still had a banged fender,3 speed,and hand brakes. Put a coaster brake on her and went off to the "Cruiser Races",that we had around here,in the early 80's. Just put the Nexus 3 speed on,along with newspaper basket...................Getting a Worksman cycle truck this week,so the basket comes off the Schwinn & the speed goes up!
 
We had Cruiser races,which the only rule was fat tire single speed bicycles,so we could do anything we wanted to the other racers. Let the air out,loosen a wheel nut,lock it up,we would get the females to surround the guy in lead,at his pit stop,while someone did something to the bike. There was the Black Label 500,Tin-man,etc,prizes were a case of Black Label,pigs feet,hair goo,etc,we had fun!
 
Thanks!..........I have other bikes,59 Schwinn Jaguar & a late 80's Cannondale mountain bike. Oh yeah,a 67 Schwinn Starlett,in pieces,but,parts are parts!
