Wow, that's a nice one! I would go as far as to say that is probably in the top 5 nicest Schwinn Hornets I have ever seen. Super color, and someone took really good care of it over the years

Thank you , I’m excited to clean it up. I think I’ll keep the original rear rim to put back on later, but add a kickback for riding this summer .

Deluxe Hornet has the springer fork and chrome rims with whitewall tires, Rocket ray headlight rather than torpedo headlight.

I cannot tell from your picture on my monitor but is the color scheme on your bike the French Blue and Gray or two-tone blue as stated earlier
