The axle retainers have been ditched but is you look closely, there's a kickstand without a clamp plate on the top of the chainstays, so it obviously had a welded kickstand plate. The one descrepancy with the OP's bicycle is the presence of a derailleur hanger, though that could be because it one step up the hierarchy ladder. Regardless, it proves that Schwinn did use this frame in the 1980s.
it is pretty neat to see how close to the original that css a n be found. So maybe it’s the next model down from the travler?
