Lower end BMX but great original condition with upgraded vintage fork and very good cosmetics so $150. I have a soft spot for the Schwinn Scrambler as my 1st bike was a blue 1983 black with mags. Hard pricing on a bike like this is is tough since BMX prices were sky high few months ago and seem to have dropped off a cliff lately.

Built up a Scrambler back in the day for my youngest brother to race. Lower end and heavier than anything else on the starting gate but the kid still won heat after heat with it.
Back to current day... if your wallet and space can withstand keeping it around, saving it as a grandkid rider is a terrific idea.
