1957 Schwinn Corvette.

[Molliepops02]

Hi I am new at making a thread so here goes!
I have an old Schwinn Bicycle.
When I ran the number 50247600 it came up, built 8/19 to 8/21 1957 Chicago Schwinn.
Looked it up to be the Corvette. My question is since the Bicycle doesn’t show Schwinn on it how much is it worth.
Looking to sell this. Thanks

Bike isn't a Schwinn. Looks Murray built.

So how would the numbers I ran come up Schwinn. I am very confused. Tracy

I have no clue. All bikes have serial numbers. Where did you see that those are said to be Schwinn numbers? Schwinncruisers.com I presume.

Yep, you used that flawed serial number look up on Schwinncruisers dot com. You are probably number 1,000,000,003 that has been confused by that site's SN lookup.

Looks to be late 50's or so if that helps.probably not a lot of value,but should make a good rider.
