I have a Paramount serial number vs. model year question. Per the serial number, I have a Paramount that was the 7th. frame made in December, 1968. My question is, because of being built in mid December, was this Paramount sold as a 1969 model or a 1968 model? This question is made even more important because of the "P" designation. According to the Schwinn catalogs, in 1968, there was the P11, P12, P13, P14. In 1969, there were only the P13 and P14. My Paramount is not a track bike so we can eliminate the P14, so if she was sold as a 1969, she's a P13. If she was sold as a 1968, she could be a P12 or a P13. She's not a P11 (Tourist)
