1980 Schwinn Suburban
i have a 1980 (according to the ID number) Schwinn Suburban. I cleaned it up this past week and converted some things over on it. it still had the original gumwalls on it. im just curious what it is worth. and i do still have the OE parts off of it

These make nice basic riders but aren't worth a lot and are not really rare or very collectiable as many think. Only about $150 in near perfect condition.

Nice job, but I don't understand why you would put drops on it? Take better photos to maximize price.

Normally I'd agree, however in this case better pics would expose the fact that it has a 5-speed FFS/Positron drivetrain: Schwinn 1980 Bicycles And Accessories -- Suburban
