I live for the CABE
Looks like an '80 to me. Those decals are usually shot but this one looks nice. It does have weinmann shorty fenders on it, but i think 225 is pretty high for an 80s era Varsity.

Finally riding a big boys bike
Just spoke to the seller. He is willing to take $150. Rockford is 3 hours away, but I have a friend that will go pick it up for me and hold it till I get up there

Finally riding a big boys bike
I think I am going to pass on the black Super LeTour, and just grab the blue conti and the Varsity, then I have to quit. That will give me quite a bit of tinkering over the winter. My wife is going to kick my ass out if I fill the garage with a bunch of bikes.
You picked the bikes I would have gone for. I notice you're all over the place on frame sizes. The Conti is a 26" and this varsity looks to be 22". Quite a difference.
here's a link to Schwinn catalogs. You can identify the probable year of the bikes you're interested in.

Riding a '38 Autocycle Deluxe
Me too. It's fixable even if it is, but it might warrant lowering the price.

Finally riding a big boys bike
My friend went and looked at the bike, and the fork is bent. He said it looked like it was bent right where it goes into the head tube. I think I am going to pass on this one, just too much hassle to get it home, and I didn't realize it was only a 22". It sure looks nice, tho.
