1949 B6 Rusty Relic

[stingrayjoe]

I bought this old Schwinn Majestic badged B-6 last weekend from a local antique dealer. The rear carrier is cracked on each side at rear probably from a passenger. The seat, tires, pedals, fenders, grips and some hardware especially on the springer have been changed long ago. The S-2s and guard look newer than 1949 too.

I think it was yard art for a while. I found remnants of vines around the tank.... The battery tray and horn are clean!....
