The metallurgy on the early SunTour detailers left something to be desired. I've run into higher mileage examples with excessive slop between the derailleur body and hanger bolt.

All the bike-boom era Varsity's derailleurs I've seen were Allvits marked 'Schwinn Approved'. The Allvit was used on top quality French Herse and Singer bikes back in the day.
