Not sure what kind of Fuji I have
I found this Fuji in the trash and thought it would be a good fixer upper maybe turn it into a nice ebike. The model is traverse but I want to know what exactly it is the SN is WBD314L0747N
I also received another bike and I’m not sure what kind of bike it is. It’s rideable but it needs work the SN is RK7332CC (I’m not sure what the last letter is it looks like a backwards C. Maybe a capital D. I tired posting pictures but it wouldn’t allow me

Few serial numbers on bikes give any meaningful information. Maybe a plant location of manufacture and a year made along with just the number they were coming off the off the assembly line that year. Perhaps your might include the model. But you seem to already know that.
There is this site for very old Fuji's that were when Fuji's weren't just a name of a once great bike someone bought when they went out of business. https://classicfuji.posthaven.com/fu...om-bill-reavis Not saying the Fuji after the bankruptcy are crap. They just aren't the original more desirable Fuji bike.
Your best bet to get an idea about it is to put the pics of your bike or bikes in the Gallery here on BF and just tell us they are there. Others might be able to give you a there about date for age based on the components on it or some other tell of the frame or paint scheme.

I'd say to put this up in the Classic & Vintage forum, where all of the Fujiphiles with the real Fuji-fu hang out.
Puns aside, I learned everything I know about my 1985 League Fuji from Scott's website and the C&V forum.

Sure doesn't look like a "classic" Fuji,not with that frame design. It looks close to the current Fuji Traverse 1.5 ST https://www.fujibikes.com/usa/bikes/...raverse-1-5-st which retails for around $700. It's a bike with entry level components. Only you can decide if refurbishing it is worth what you will have to spend. If it were a high-end model, then even a trash bin find might be worth fixing.

Pic Assist. Fuji Traverse LE 1.8 Appears to be from around 2014 or 2015.
