Schwinn derailleur info needed!

[1937Zenith]

Need some help from the Schwinn experts. Just picked up this 5 speed fastback project and I’m digging into it. I removed the rear derailleur and it is unfortunately just way too far gone to save. Does anyone on here know if there is any other Schwinn bikes that might be a little more common that had the same derailleur? Just trying to get my hands on one without having to pay an arm and a leg on eBay. Thanks in advance!

Tons of them used that derailleur, look for Varsity, Collegiate, and other bikes from 1968 to about 1970. There are a bunch of those derailleurs on eBay all the time too, it will be easy to find a replacement.

Maybe salvageable to functional if soak remove rust and wd40 so springs and pulleys move free
