All original Schwinn Typhoon in great condition.
This is a Vintage 1965 Schwinn Typhoon.  Model L12.  This bicycle is in good shape - definitely a rider with just a minimal amount of work.  The frame has several scratches while the fenders have a few dings and scratches.  Excellent paint - still has a good gloss. 
All original except for the grips, which are a coppertone color, not the red that they should be.
The headtube has some chips in the paint, right above the headbadge.

Schwinn electroforged cantilever style frame - for durability. 
Original chainguard is in excellent shape.

This bicycle was built in the week of February 8, 1965.
Built in Chicago, IL.
