1961/62 Schwinn help! Plz!

[GTs58]

Im 100% with you guys on the serial number not being the built date. Just look at the Cruisers of the late 70s and early 80s. I have an LS serial number cruiser that would put it at November 1981 but badge says it was built 251st day of 1982. I was just curious if there where any t
TYPHOON straight bar frame with built in kickstand that wod have an L1 or M1 serial number

I would say there is a very good chance there are some of those continuous twin bars out there. Using my Corvette 5 Registry for a reference, it's obvious Schwinn produced the different models in batches at certain times over the production year. The 5 speed had months between some of their batches with no production. The 1962 models began with the L1 serial numbers. This is apparent from the serial data

I have the other end of this. A November 62 stamped typhoon. Possible 63 double straight bar?
I just havent gotten to it to try to identify any of the other parts.
