It almost looks like this person is going out of their way to be evasive about this frame. I guess that is why the bidding is so low.

Hi Ray:
I don't see any red flags. Seems like an honest seller to me (check his straightforward responses to questions about the frame). He probably just isn't a bike "expert" and so he doesn't know lots about this particular item.
It sounds like maybe it's a 23" Schwinn "Xtra Lite" Voyageur, BTW. (Did they ever chrome Super LeTours? I remember fully-chromed Voyageurs, for sure...). Likely made in Japan by National (Panasonic). 4130 Chrome-moly tubing, forged dropouts. Circa 1979 or so.
