Xavier,
I hate to disappoint you, but it is not a Schwinn. The chainring, frame styling, and fork crown are not Schwinn styles. Sorry! But it is a cool looking bike, probably from the '60s.

Looks like a Sears Spaceliner to me. The dropouts and bar between the top and down tube really pinpoint it to a Sears bike. Be it a Flight or Space liner.

Murray middleweight from about 1963-64'. Repainted with spraybombs. They made about a jillion of them in the 60's.

50-100 I'd say. It looks pretty complete. Just clean her up and spray it down with some furniture polish to give it that nice one hour shine before you sell it. Though t's up to you and what you want out of it. If your looking to keep it for yourself then if you feel like got a good deal on it then that's all that matters. How much do you have into it? It's nothing your going to retire on. Better luck next time.

I.D. info above is correct. Sometimes you do see one of these , in great condition, sell for pretty good money. I like them & they are a good ride. Google " Sears Spaceliner " ,, " Huffy , Monark Galaxie " to see some nice ones to get an idea.
