added pics*****
so i picked up a schwinn tornado this weekend at an auction for $12.50! it looks to be all O.G. the only thing that looks suspicious to me is that the frame is orange instead of black like all the other ones ive seen. but its a factory orange from schwinn. the fork is black with the word schwinn down em. chrome rims and the coaster brake arm says shimano on it. ive got the serial number located under the headbadge, FN510283. if anybody can tell me any info about it that would be super! no pics right now as im outta town. will post em up soon though. ill check the cabe real quik. its a june 1977. but i still cant figure out the orange frame. maybe it was just a different color they went with. who knows. any info would be appreciated.
