I would never buy a Paramount with a dent in the top tube. Make that ANY tube.

The Paramount fund is funded, and there's 4 auctions in my size on eBay ending this week.

But I'm starting to question its authenticity. The Seller says its a '70 Paramount, and that it was repainted and has no headbadge or decals. I was under the impression that Schwinn was using Nervex lugs in 1970 on their Paramounts. These lugs look decidedly un-nervex.

What do you folks think? is this a Paramount or a fake?
