Looks like an early ('50-53) green Pantom frame with a hodge podge of stuff on it. Where was the serial #? V/r Shawn

its definitely a green phantom but looks to have been "restored" at some point as it is missing the diamond on the seat tube, I can't see it in this picture. Handle bars, grips, seat, rack, chain guard, crank/chain ring, kick stand are all wrong. Missing rear tail light, and the tank looks to be from a black phantom, I though green phantoms had green tanks but I could be wrong. Wheel also appear to be wrong. I have never seen a phantom with a skip tooth wheel setup

Judging by the dropouts, it looks like a prewar frame so 41 could be correct. So not a green phantom but a lot cooler. Newer tank, parts, possibly springer. Schwinn guys will know.

Shoulda put my glasses on to see the dropouts! Still looks like a lot of mix-n-match regardless. V/r Shawn

You're right, it is a prewar, likely 41. Looks to have repop Phantom fenders and tank, etc., etc.. Fork looks post war which would fit the indents in the repop fenders. Seat is prewar sliding rail Messinger. A green phantom "like" paint scheme. Nice looking bike, I would ride it.

Paint is original repop phantom stuff was on it. Could it be a B6? have not seen this color combo of black and green for the 1941 year? I'd # under crank.

H is 1941... frame is prewar but it's definitely a frankenbike...

Fork is cut down postwar. ... .. any better pics?... mast diamond missing makes me think it's been repainted at some point...
Considering the fork is matching paint
