Banana seats aren't a regular subject of discussion here, but I owned a couple OEM bikes that sold, '66 to '69.
Maybe The Cabe?

Schwinn made a Sting Ray Bi-Centennial model with Red, White and Blue banana saddle in 1976.

Can't help with the bikes but would strongly recommend editing your original post and removing phone number. Posting that is just an all-around bad idea, even in a cool place like this.

Edit: Okay, I lied... four seconds work and I can help with one of the bikes. A quick google of "firecracker banana seat" turned up numerous images of a bike apparently produced for Grant Stores... one of many Schwinn "muscle bike" knockoffs and probably of little value beyond the novelty. No info on the other so no search possible.
