So this phantom is hanging from a ceiling in an Oklahoma diner. Is it real?

I don't even think it is a re-issue. Probably an old cantilever frame that someone 'restored' to look like a Phantom. Wrong seat and wrong pedals for either an original or re-issue. V/r Shawn
 
I have a "reissue" phantom.
The coaster brakes have the Schwinn stamping.
The brake arm has "Schwinn Centennial ~ 1895 ~1995.


A "real" phantom would most likely have rivets
on the fenders.
My reissue has nuts & bolts on the fenders.

I have several originals,one reissue and one
that was slapped together to look like a
phantom.

I like them all and each one serves a different
purpose.
 
The question by the OP was whether this bike is a real Phantom. The answer is-not likely based on the discrepancies noted.
