1972 World Traveler

Hey, just thought I'd share. This is my '72 World Traveler made by Panasonic for Schwinn. I had never seen this cool color before (Opaque Green) and it was cheap!

The hubs were pretty gummed up, so I opened them up, cleaned & repacked, got some new rubber on the wheels, cleaned up the drivetrain, new cables/housing. Then I thought I'd tweak it out for a bit more of an casual ride with some old Varsity upright bars & brake levers, fenders, rack and then a new saddle. I love the ride. Gonna be awhile before the roads clear again though here in Wisconsin.
