Picked this up today and was wondering if it's easily dated was told 1967 and looks original and good shape. Have been looking for a schwinn twin
But now kinda like this frame male/female setup better

Of all the tandems I have seen this has to be my favorite. However, this bike is not a 1967 model. It's pre-'63 with that frame and chain ring combo. What's the serial number on the rear dropout?

s/n is 1H305036 1963?

1961 Huffy Tandem

1 = 19_1
H = Huffman
305036 = Internal production code

To determine the decade, traits such as the frame, paint, chaingaurd, and chain rings tell me it's 1960's.

Ok thanks for the date info older than I thought which is good

I've got a red one very similar to it in parts but missing the front portion of the chainguard
