I'm thinking this is a pretty rare color combo? A quick search didn't turn up any to match. I cleaned this frame up a bit today. Originally it showed almost no blue at all. Came out kinda neat! I'm half tempted to make a ratrod out of it!

Well, that's for sure a color combo you don't see every year or so, at least on a Schwinn. ;)

Rat it if no other matching parts.
 
Wow!
That is an unusual color combo.
Is it just the frame, or did you get any of the other paint parts?
This is all I have of the painted parts. Maybe a fork, not sure. I got it with a pickup load of stuff.

The blue is a "true blue", so I guess it's not like a DX, which was lighter colored? Not sure if this is what you'd call Cobalt or not.
 
Looks to be the bright Periwinkle blue you see on some prewar bikes..
a bit lighter than cobalt, and a bit darker than cobalt.

2nd bike I have ever seen in that color....the other was a 40 Hollywood on
Craigslist a few months back.

I'm getting ideas.....

any trace of Pins? I believe they were white

Traces of white pins intact. I bet this was pretty cool when new! I saw the post you made about the '40 Hollywood. It looked like it had "Henderson" on the down tube, so we have proof of two 1940 Hendersons in this combo.
