I recently obtained a 1973 Schwinn Paramount Model P15 from an old friend who had kept it in his garage for over 30 years. It had probably not been ridden since before 1980. It looked pretty bad at first, but I was surprised at what good shape it is actually in after dismantling, cleaning and repacking bearings, etc. The bike has all original components, essentially all campy except the rear derailleur that year was the LeTour GT300 (rebranded Shimano) that was apparently a little better at handling the wide size differences in the freewheel cogs (which are Regina Oro). And, of course, the Brooks Professional saddle. The only non-original parts are the new tires and tubes, and new leather straps on the toe clips.

Although I plan to keep the bike, I am curious as to what it may be worth. It is probably fortunate that it had been used so little. Otherwise, some of the original stuff might have been replaced. Also, I have the original hand pump that went with the bike, a Silca, which -- with a little new grease, works quite well.

Attached are some pictures.
