The frame is a 1952 or 53, going by the serial number. It is either a Wasp or a Hornet. I thought it was a DX but the middle tube curves down on the DX. Most other parts are from a 1965 Schwinn American which became the top of Reverse Cowgirl. This bike will likely get a real Schwinn knee action springer and a drum brake. Paint is Rust O Leum brown primer with satin green flames.
