Not a musclebike guy, but picked this up dirt cheap. What’s a good tip to tell the real deal from a repop. Also, looked for a minute for the serial and didn’t see it, but as I was posting the pics I noticed it on the dropout, looks like it starts with an F. Thanks for any input.

Looks like the serial is FA so the serial was stamped June of 65. I guess Campus Green doesn't fade out and then change colors. :p

Doing a full blown resto on that?

Thank you bud, just plan on cleaning it up and getting it rolling again. It’s pretty froze up, nothing turns on it, lol. Gave 25$ for it hoping that it wasn’t a repop. Appreciate the help.
 
Yes, what Overhauler said, that was a Lime 1965 Sting-Ray. Great find there! That looks like a J-36 model, I think those were Deluxe Sting-Ray bikes but with blackwall tires. The sissy bar on that bike, even rusty like that is a great item, they always seem to be missing from the bikes. The only thing I see real quick that isn't correct is the grips, they should be white Schwinn chubbie grips. Great find there!
