1962 cycle truck barn find

[redline1968]

i saw this and it said to me I’m one to buy.. so I bought it. The owner said it was original and when I went to see it .. it definitely was.....he said it came out from Oklahoma and health issues was the reason to sell. It just needs a good cleaning.. besides the seat and funky rear rack it appears to be complete and original. All the plating including the cadmium is very nice. It almost looks painted on but it’s not....Hope I didn’t pay too much but the condition was too good to pass on it... I thought I’d post it here for references and opinions..

Let me know your address, and the date of the garage sale. I would definitely pay garage sale prices for a C/T. Hahaha j/k. That would definitely make garage selling so much easier!

Nice Cycle Truck! I thought all Schwinn coaster hubs during that time were red bands? Not the CT?

Where-ish in Seattle are you? I’ve lived here for three years now but have found VERY few vintage bike guys, events, etc. in the area.
