Finally riding a big boys bike
Up for grabs is a 1950s Schwinn Black Panther . This bike would look great sitting next to your black phantom. Two peas in a pod.
The bike itself can be called complete but not 100% original. The chainguard is a repop, it has some fitment issues but its on for the pics. Needs proper nuts and bolts. Fitment is either the guard or crank, not 100% sure. The front fender is a wald replacement as it did not have a front fender when found. Missing the tank internals, but those are pretty easy to find. The rack is bent up, has a bit of a crack from where I'm guessing a kid sat on it. S2 wheels with nice goodyear whitewalls, decent seat, decent chrome.
I would call this bike a survivor that needs some work put into it. Some fine tuning is needed. Wheels need a bit of tru work and bearings need grease. This bike could be shining with a bit of effort, and would be very restoreable if desired.
I dont have the time nor space to work on it, so I am moving it on to someone who does. When all done up, these go upwards of 2000.
My price : Now Just 750 shipped anywhere in the Continental United States. Paypal/venmo accepted. Located in Springfield Missouri. If local sale is done, cash is preferred.
Would be interested in trades for 70s bmx, maybe a schwinn krate, will entertain trade offers. Cash can be added for the right trade.
