Schwinn DX liberty Bicycle 1941 vintage Pre war Bike BF Goodrich prewar

  

Here is a 1941 schwinn made liberty dx. This appears to me to have original paint. I asked many collectors about the paint and all said original I asked because the paint job is not very good but I guess in 41 bicycle paint jobs were not.

The chain guard is not original to the bicycle it does have original paint also but it has more scratches than the bicycle. UPDATE I had a fellow ebayer tell me that the truss rods and fender braces were never painted on these bicycles. So I did some investigating and it those are a much brighter shade of white than the creme paint on the frame, fork and fenders. So I'd say those were painted at a later date.

Also about the paint I determined that the paint is actually pretty good but the brazing on the welds is what is making the paint job look poor. This bicycle does have a blue faced Stewart warner speedometer and a new departure 2 speed. It is used so it has scuffs, scratches and is not perfect but is a very nice example of a prewar schwinn.
