The bike was originally the standard Schwinn "lemon" color but I repainted it myself sometime in the late 1970's.

Wow, very cool! I was wondering what year the frame was? The one I am looking at does not have a dedicated deraileur hanger. The deraileur is mounted in the rear drop out with a mounting plate.
