Paramount

Guy claims this is a paramount frame set I talked him down to$100 I’m not sure if it really is one . No serial number in any of the pictures that matches a schwinn number …

Need help

Need help identifying these parts and where can I get chainrings that fit as campagnolo uses their own proprietary spacing. Bought these at the Tucson swap meet in the mid 90’s threw them in a tool box and forgot them .
