It's Sunday what schwinns did we fin this week...Weekley thread

[vintage2wheel]

It's Sunday what prewar/vintage Schwinn bikes/parts/ fun stuff did we find this week? Show us the pictures and tell us the story.

It was a very big week for me and very hard not to show my friends cause I wanted to show it here first.

I got a matching pair 1937's Schwinn Autocycle and motorbike maroon in color.

I have waited a long time for this Autocycle and got exactly what I wanted
A completely original uncirculated AC and motorbike for that matter.

These bikes originally came from the east coast from a family of collectors.
The motorbike has a drop stand and no showing of marks where a kickstand was ever on. The motorbike also had a 40 lever on as it did in the pictures I saw from back in the day. Might leave it on or but a shorty. Not sure.

A friend gave me a killer lock display piece.
And I have one more coming in a week or two.

Shaun...love the Schwinn fender bomb and the dual headlights on the Autocycle...I assume those are Silver Rays?

Wish I could afford one these (the complete bike that is)....but the pic is being added to my wish list...thanks for sharing.

Silverrays -I do not know why they were used sometimes

But they are the cast pot metal body with reveals- mostly seen with a stampped chromed brass base on a front fender- As on the motorbike
