schwinn. 1930's probably. complete, in that condition, with the right buyer, you could probably get a grand for it. easy 500.

you got ripped off.

that's a skiptooth, right? and the "lucky 7" bent seatpost? couldn't be a 53...

Im only 15, bought this off an old lady. She said it was 53, but that is probably sketchy

I'll take the chain guard and rear rack off your hands so you can recoup some of that inflated price back....lol
