1939 Schwinn Motorbike Tank

[Freqman1]

For your consideration a rock solid 1939 Motorbike tank (B model). I believe this is a one year only tank with the ‘kick back’ straps. No rot and the door hinges and latch work like the should. Remnant of the battery box and the switch is present as well. This tank was repainted sometime in the 1950s and contemporary Schwinn decals were applied. Leave as-is for a rockabilly look or restore and plug that gaping hole in your frame! Email me at Oldbikeguy1@hotmail.com to purchase or ask questions. Thanks, Shawn

Man that would fit my 36’ Henderson since it’s black! I have a red tank that needs painted,beautiful paint but it doesn’t match mine. Oh well I guess I’ll be painting it since it will be the cheapest way. Beautiful tank man!!
