Hi Folks!
My first post here, so apologies if I'm doing anything against form.
I just picked this up on the way to work. From the serial number it appears to be a 1976 Chicago Schwinn.
I have a couple questions (I'll add more pics as I get time).
1. Fenders: I've seen Stingrays with and without front fenders. Which models had them, and which didn't? I'm pretty sure this one is missing the rear fender.
2. Red/Yellow: Everything here looks right, but this combination of red frame with yellow guard and forks is unusual?
3. Seat: Is it possible this is the original seat? In other red/yellow combos I've seen, typically there is a yellow seat.
Sorry for the newbie questions, I'm just really excited!
