Being a Schwinn will help value, association with Excelsior motorcycles will help it, and the reverse paint will definitely help it.
However, condition fair, no tires or accessories isn't a plus.
I cannot say I saw a bike similarly enough sell to say it is worth x, but I would say I would be comfortable at 1K as a buyer give or take.

Not a Schwinn. These were built in Indiana. Here's a previous thread: http://thecabe.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?4679-Excelsiors-made-in-Indiana
And a pic of one that I previously owned and one that Ken may or may not still have that looks quite similar to yours: http://thecabe.com/vbulletin/showth...eens-early-20-s-Excelsior&highlight=excelsior

Looks like a Mich City built machine. 1918-1920ish date based on the olive drab paint scheme. The paint is a rare combo but another member had one similar that was posted here a year ago. I'd agree with the 1k approximate value. Most of that value is based on the original paint which should clean up beautifully.
It's a great example of a late teens excelsior with some neat features (fork, stem

Wore out three sets of tires already!
The pictures aren't mine and are a little dark so it's hard to see the colors but they are not olive. The main color is cream with a about a ⅜" red stripe outlined by a ¼" light blue, then a black pinstripe. I will be picking it up tomorrow and will try to post better pictures. Thanks for all the input.
