Does anyone have an opinion on the serial number? According to all the explanations of Schwinn's numbering scheme I've seen, L73611 indicates that the bike is the 611th frame to have been built in November 1973. That is W-A-Y beyond the scale of production I've understood.

Has anyone else noticed that the seller's bikes described as Paramount track and Raleigh International are painted the same non-Schwinn, non-Raleigh color?

Qs, Qs, Qs...
