Here is a 1952 Panther Girl's model I assembled a few years back and then sold.

Needed the tank painted and decal'd to be finished. Rear rack was a repop and was the wrong color.

Panthers were introduced in 1950 with the balloon generation ending in 1953/54. Middle weight panthers were available shortly after.

John, great red Panther, love the seat. Just got a '58 (or so) vintage dealer's catalog in the mail today (thanks, eBay!) and it lists that seat! It's called the "Schwinn Air Flow Saddle", retailed for $5.80. (Phantom saddle retailed for $8.50 in this cat.) 70 cents less without the side handles. It's a saddle you almost never see. Dang it! Now I want one.

Cheers, Geoff
 
This one now resides with a Trek employee in Wisconsin.

GR Thanks for the pics-I wondered where that bike went-I'm not an expert, but it's the most "as new" panther I've seen. ( except what they've told me about the rocket ray) I hope people keep posting pics!

Can't see to many pics of panthers-phantoms everywhere-panthers are cooler(my humble opinion)
 
Papajon, I think the wheels are smokin' cool. I took heat from several purists for some 144-spoke wheels I put on my JCH Flightliner, but I made the bike how I wanted it. If you want to ride on all those spokes, then great!

I love the bike, spokes & all.
