That sticker on the seat post bar makes me believe it is a 1962 20" Schwinn American. Can't see the sticker very well.... just a guess.

Nahhhhh, were not arguing just a couple members w/ a slighty different view on things. I ride Schwinn bikes and feel there is definately a reason why these bikes are one of the most known and collected bikes ever. In a 100 years (cause I will probably live way past that :wink: ) I will look at...

Hi Dorian, I just wrote a long response to this but unfortunately my pc burped and I lost it all :cry: What I am trying to say is if you build a house on a bad foundation.... it doesn't matter if you have the best roof money can buy, windows and even a shiny front door. All installed by the...

It's not a bike anymore.... It's history! The 63 Sting-Rays are a big deal to early collectors. First 1/2 year of the Schwinn Sting-Ray inception. Not many 63's left w/ original parts or even add on original dated parts. Not my bag of tea but if I had a ton of $$ that may differ? Also it's a...

I believe the tire.... for 24" x 2.125 anyway is $24.00 on his site. w/o the free shipping I think it is calculated by your zip for shipping. I live in Portland, Oregon and it came to $9.14 shipping on the calculator. A grand total of $33.14 for one tire. A slim price for a tire thought not to...

I ended up purchasing 10 and my buddy 5.... I'll be more than happy to grab some white walls if they are made! Fingers crossed. Thanks again and much appreciated. Bent S.

Propane and S-2's Yes those rims will work. They are just like the regular S-2's but the sidewalls are straight instead of angled out. A 20x2.125 tire will fit. The first bike in my post has an exersizer rim. Lace em up and find the correct spot to put the valve hole and you should be good to...

Hi, Anything that has custom paint or vinyl on it is stuff I did. The seat on the blue bike was just made seconds before the propane photos'. Thanks Bent

EJ599...... I searched and found the frame you bought on ebay. I looked up the serial # and it appears your frame was built sometime between June 15th to June 30th 1955. The models in 20" for that year I found were: Hornet, Spitfire, Wasp, American, and Streamliner. Should be a fun project...

First off I want to give a HUGE thanks to HOOCH for posting pics for me!! I'm turning in to the computer unsavy kid he never knew he had. The monkeys name is Nalga and this paticular monkey I've never had to spank. Ej599.... The bike in the photo is a Feb of 1960 20" Schwinn Deluxe Spitfire in...

WOW!!! I will never ask to see another mans propane tank again!!! Now my whole life seems sub par. Thanks for the photos.... you are my propane idol. Bent S. :shock: P.S. I never realized how well propane tanks and bikes compliment one another.

I would go as far to say...... A sub par bicycle in a sub par living room w/ a kick a** propane tank !!! Please send me photos of your propane tank. Bent

Still no luck...... I will give it another year and try back. Thanks

Nope no luck
