72-73 Schwinn World Traveler Geometry

My first "real" bike was a 1972 lime green Schwinn World Traveler manufactured by Panasonic. I believe it was the first bike imported and sold by Schwinn dealers. Surprising that here is a good bit of information about these bikes on the web but I have never been able to find the geometry specifications. Do any of you know?

I'm not a Schwinn expert but didn't they start importing from Japan later in the 1970's?

Both the World Voyaguer and World Traveler were early Japanese imports. Maybe other models as well? I dunno.
