Total landfill/trash. Go with the rigid fork. ATB.
Don't trash bikes. Donate them to an organization that will send them to the third world. In my area we have Bikes Not Bombs; there might be another one in your area.
Was the Schwinn Continental welded or filet brazed ?s I recall Schwinn did make a filet brazed bike back then.
