On Training Wheels
Hello, I'm new here and I have just recently started the vintage bicycle hobby. I currently in the process of cleaning up my Dad's Schwinn Spitfire, he got this bike for Christmas when he was 11 years old.
I'm having a hard time figuring out the year of this bike and was wondering if someone could help out. The serial number is stamped on the bottom bracket and is B29205. It does not have a kickstand tube welded to the frame. Just has a kickstand bolted on. Also the chain guard is clamped to the frame instead of screwed to a bracket but has a screw hole on the frame by the rear wheel. I don't have a Schwinn chain guard for it, it has what looks like a aftermarket chrome chain guard.
I do have a lot of pictures if that would be of any help.
Thanks so much for any info you can provide.
