No relation to seller.

The pulse-combustion furnace in the background is nice, but the pix aren't helpful. I wonder if the bike has been repainted. In particular, my '65 road Paramount has a white seat-tube band that this one lacks, and I thought that the "Schwinn Paramount" dt decal was a later style.

Mine was repainted by Schwinn when it was still Schwinn (at Waterford), and I've never been sure that these are the right decals.

thanks for the help.
