a 95 which is cool but not old, then a 67 and 68 all ridable as is but Im going to strip them ,paint them and re sell them for a big profit. I only paid 20 each for them so I will profit alot. I am looking for a head badge for one if i can get it for under 5 bucks LOL. but they all have nice breaking and pedaling and steering and all tires hold air so looks like paint and grease is all I will need https://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-frc1/887250_620053391341322_1245490291_o.jpg

sweet deal man! you killed it!
If theyre the Pacific Schwinns the price you paid is just about right. :wink:
Good deals! :mrgreen:
Which two are the older ones?
Looks like 80's forks and guards. Whats the serial numbers? Are they on the headtube? Also the brake bridge/fender mount look straight? Should be curved to match the fender.
The closest one is not a 60's Schwinn frame. Welded steer head instead of forged unit, fender brace and chain-guard tab wrong, flattened chain-stay bends. All the way in back is a Schwinn Heavy Duti, which is a desirable current model. if you can get one of the wheel sets clean and stick 'em on there, there's your sixty bucks back easy. :wink:

To me they look late 80's or pacific cycle schwinns. Def not early schwinns. Where the tubes run into the headtube is there a weld or is it smooth and blended in?

Still not bad for working bikes at 20 bucks a pop. If you can make a buck out of them, more power to you. Just don't want some buyer jerking your chain 'cause they're not what you thought they were.
I am in no way ineterested in buying the OPs bikes, basically he claimed they were the real deal and I just wanted him to know that they weren't. Im sure he'll get more than 20 each when he flips 'em, and thats a good thing.
