Nice find. Barring mishap that bike should still be around in 2064, getting someone down the street.
Yes. I've seen several threads this week where someone was lucky enough to find a 40 pound Schwinn that could easily be "tuned up" to provide another thirty years of riding....and I keep waiting for Sydney to remind us that old Schwinn's are just "gas pipe".
I don't think I'll ever look at a Varsity or a Continental again without remembering they are "just gas pipe".
