Well, the pics are nice,
green, Jaguar.🙂
 
Pretty far over the mark IMO. NOS bow pedals from another decade and not Schwinn. No pins on the fork, wrong carrier and it's Painted. 😱 Wrong seat post and clamp but the chrome looks better with a fresh repaint. It's purdy though and would look better with no paint on the carrier.

I don't think there actually was a 56. 54/55 were Ballooners and the 57/58 were Mark II's and 59/62 were Mark IV's. No 56 model. I agree that at that price it would need to be a C8 or better.

The new Jaguar was released early sometime in 1956. I’ve seen a few with late second quarter serial stamping dates but I haven’t found any literature saying when these were actually released.

Like car models later in the year are the following year models. The actual model year for the first year MW Jag was 57 even though it may have a 56 serial number. I have a few books where Dave S and Bob U point this out. No 56 Jaguar brochures.

There have been some pretty early serial numbers on these, so I'll have to say there were some 1956 Jags. (August). The Corvette 5 speed was introduced in July 61 and they're considered 61 models. The new cars were on the lots in September and Schwinn's regular new year models weren't shipped out until mid-January.
The American was discontinued for a while and the Speedster took it place in 1959. Then in mid 1961 the Speedster was discontinued and the American was reintroduced.
