Found this Schwinn in a flea market - bad shape. Decided to have fun with it. Powder coated frame. Hand-restored all else. Woody's lacewood and wenge fenders and chain guard. Brooks saddle and saddle bag. Hand-covered the handle bar grips in black leather and added black, leather tassels (not shown). Tracked the SN down - 1957 Jaguar. I ride it in community fun-runs - it always draws attention and gets LOTS of comments. Weighs close to 50 lbs. haven't restored the hand brakes yet, the kickback hub works well and I like the cleaner lines without cables.
Nice Bike!
Great job!
