It's a Schwinn man. Looks like it'll clean up real nice.

Did they have a skip tooth sprocket?

Looks like a Meteor or later Wasp. Model D-12 in 26" and J-30 in 24". The Hornets were decked out.
They were still using the 1" pitch chain rings in 54.

Great looking little bike!

For $50.00 why not? I can always figure something to do with it.

I always fail to calibrate my eyeballs to pick up on the 24" wheels at first glance at a pic... good job!

When I'm not sure I look at the headtube. The 24 inchers have a smaller headtube, the badge almost goes from top to bottom.
