This is a great original piece!! I was planning on fixing it up this summer but decided that I didn't have the know how on vintage bikes to make it original... I didn't touch it other then a damp cloth to get dust off. I ultimatley want this treasure to go to a good home w she will be cafully restored to her original years. The bike is in astonishing good condition, t are some expected rust marks... but really not much concidering what its probably been through over the years (PLEASE EXAMINE THE PICTURES CAREFULLY, I did my best from what I know). It has Goodyear All Weather balloon tires, headlight, horntank, and Schwinn grips. It also has 24" wheels that are marked Schwinn Tubular and the coaster brake is marked New Departure. It has the original dark green and cream paint with the trademak hornet wing on the horn tank. It is a true time capsule that I am finding hard to part with. I will ship this Item, but I am hesitant too, I don't deal in bikes and wouldn't want anything to happen durring shipping if I do end up shipping it will be $60. I am somewhat weary, but open to, someone picking the bike up, Please email me on this subject. If you have any questions I would be delighted to answer them. Thank you for looking!!!!
