That would be Wald, not ward. Pre 1965 Schwinn bars and stems were unmarked.

Thanks for the info but I believe the boys 63 to 65 stingrays had a 5 inch crank arm this is a 4 inch and the chain gaurd on boys has a flare up towards the back

'63-mid '65 Stingray's had a 4.5 inch crank after that they went to a 5.5 inch crank

Those Wald bars are still good for building custom builds. Many American bike companies used them.
