I bought this bike 5 years ago and it looked like it came off the show room floor,it was flawless....It got all the scratches from laying a pile with other bikes and parts....I road it a few times and put it in the back yard....now it is rusting and the paint has faided....It is a japan made schwinn....Good for a engine kit????

I think a motor would fit just fine on it but the tires/rims should go.....way too thin....will feel like riding down a railroad bed....a better seat and bars and tires/rims should make that a perfectly great bike....

Try ebay or craigslist to get an idea. Schwinn is a good name, thats an old school road bike so Id just look and see. Its amazing what old bikes are worth. When 1 pops up here on craigslist in denver it doesnt stay on there long, someones buying them.

Sorry to break it to ya, but the only Schwinns that are worth anything are the Sting Rays & the cruisers. Eveyone lists Schwinns like yours for a lot of $$$ because they think "it's a Schwinn, it's gotta be worth a lot"... but they really don't sell for that much.

Also, did anyone bid that much for the bike on ebay? or is it sitting there with zero bids?
