Pre war Schwinn B9
I found this locally on Facebook Marketplace. The seller is looking for a "reasonable offer." The ad says it is a 1934 and they have put new hubs on it. Looks mostly complete with the exception of the seat. It also includes the Sears cruiser pictured. I've googled this some but haven't found a solid price. Any ideas? Thanks

I can say the dating is 32-34 based on the double top tube with bend. No real idea on value with no fenders chain guard or original extras, seat and none original wheels and paint. Myself I couldn't see offering more than $300 for both and I would start at offering $200 if they say it's worth a lot more move on. I see this one as basically a frame set with bad none original paint that is going to cost a tone of time and money to rebuild even if you do a rat build.
