That was the old, and inaccurate, dating template. The real numbers up to 1959 are in a Western Auto parts manual, reissued by ABC Services. It shows MOU is actually 1955, that "Aero line" era chainguard supports that. Chainring is Schwinn, of course. -Adam
thank you very much. I was sure it had to be older than 62. I was kind of dissapointed when I heard it may be 62. thank you for your input. it makes me a little happier. :mrgreen:
the straight bar frame is an easier way to tell its older than 60's! general rule AS FAR AS I KNOW!
added a custom tank I made out of wood and added a black flashlight. lovin it. I know, I should of put this in builds... oops
