Nice Varsity. That looks completely original. The fenders on it look original too, however, there are some subtle details that Schwinn had from year to year that changed. I am not up on those details. Was this a Varsity Tourist? With the chrome fenders? Also the stem is aluminum. And you have wing nuts front and rear.
It looks like it is in great shape. But that is not why you are posting in this thread, is it.
There is something about these old heavy Schwinn's that make them enjoyable rides. I am getting closer on my Continental. I can't wait to ride it.
