Finding it with the tank is a bloody miracle!

awsome bike

more important than knowing the exact year is letting them know the value so it doesn't get handed down to a kid to destroy or worse like so many older people get "Scammed" then make sure that basket can't do any damage if it hasn't already--a basket is what busted my twin40 lens (before i got it)

For sure!

I was looking at that basket and was thinking it was not original but from what I can see that came with the bike, I think they are ugly myself but if it was original they might want to keep it. I the the bike is safe from being destroyed, the owners son wants to preserve it and he knows it has a value more than money.

I love those curved seat tubes!! I have a men's Sears Collegiate with it.

In the 1970's, Schwinn made one. I had two of them, called the Schwinn Sprint. Pretty cool looking.
