This one has me quite puzzled. The hubs appear to be Schwinn Paramount or Superior, and the fork is exactly like the fork on my (thought-to-be) prewar Paramount. The seat angle is way laid back, it seems, like the older bikes. But, there are the Nervex lugs... My 61 road paramount has the Nervex, but a throroughly moden (for its time) fork.
I suspect that the cranks are not original to the bike, but could be wrong. I don't have any idea what it is/was, but I'd be pretty surethat the decals are not original, whether or not the paint is.
