Sorry for coming so late to the game. I have had issues with losing my photos. I was able to recover enough to tell my story.
The frame I have is a 1955 Schwinn Straight Bar with springer fork. I bought this in 2003 off ebay for $45 from a guy in Illinois. I am in California.
(This phot was pulled offline) Difference is my bike had more rust and a white chain guard.
Here is the rear wheel which was in the best shape. I removed the hub in hopes of repairing it.

I am a big fan of the Fat Frank tires made by Schwalbe. The bike is being built around the color of the tires. It was my hope to save the wheels to use the original skip tooth setup. This was not the case.
