LOOKING for "YEAR" info on this old Schwinn beach cruiser

[Crazy Lacy]

I got this 26" Schwinn Beach Cruiser the other day, I have a 1980 already i've owned for many years. This one I just picked up has a bunch of mis-matched parts on it, but the frame looks the same as my 1980, the serial # starts with BV****** on the head tube. It also has the # 2 stamped on the bottom crank area, I can't seem to find anything about it on the search sites. Also, The last digit on the front badge ends in a 4?

anybody know? scratching my head on this one.

1952 popped up by keying in"BV1234" into the first link. Extrapoling from data in the second link it 'might' be 1984? Pictures of the bike...can you post them to the site?
