Got a bunch of new rats at the Springfield swap meet this weekend. Some of the Schwinns were easy to date, but could use some help with ID'ing & dateing some of the others?

Two Tornados. the 26" is a 58. the 20" is probably early 70's, it has a '75 bicycle safety sticker.

Two '60's. A Corvette and a Co'ed. The Coed I got for the wife, and it has a 2 speed kick back hub.

A couple Skip Tooth's. The black is a Schwinn but will have to strip some of the brushed on paint to find the #'s. Not sure on the orange, could use some help id'ing??? Head badge says Wings. Maybe CW??

Cool stuff. I hope to get down there one of these years. One of the guys here went and came back with a truck and trailer full of bikes.

Yep. probably all three. The Coed I'm already cleaning up for the wife. and gave the Westernflyer to a friend of my son's thats into old bikes. The rest I'll probably fix up a few I might flip.
