Funny. I read this whole thread hoping to figure out what happened to this one! Not sure why, but I really like it. Has a rasta vibe.

This bike is a keeper.
Currently sits like this, but with 2 flat tires.

I can’t explain it, but for some reason I love that bike. 62 Typhoon is now on my wish list. Also something about the paint and colors. I am already planning a future build of using this bike as inspiration!

I miss mine had this beauty years ago and got rid of it. Had the perfect patina on it just had to remove the resprays and didn't have the heart to paint it after so I cleared what was left of the original paint and it turned out awesome.

^that's a very cool Schwinn, but not the same frame. Note how on the 62 Typhoon, how the double bars continue back and become the stays.

@MattiThundrrr didn't notice that. Mine was a Schwinn Tornado but still a very similar look.

Supper cool build, love the lock still on the tube.

That sure looks like a Schwinn Tornado to me. With a western auto chain guard.

Extended a set of V bars for my blue Schwinn. It was pretty easy for a very amateur “welder”, me.
Added 4.5 inches on each side.
Cut the head off of a 3/4 bolt and inserted that to support the extensions.
It’s a way more comfortable ride now!
