my 1st panther find

[Kenny Middendorf]

rescued my first Schwinn panther from an auction last nite . i say rescued because the guy i was bidding against was going to part it out ! he said he realey didn't like bikes just money ! sad childhood i guess . as always it could use a few things but it looks like it will clean up great , heck i aired up the tires and road it to work this morning ,cool bike.
