I love it. In June of 1985 my dad took me to Van's Bicycles in Yuba City, CA, where he bought me my high school graduation present: an '85 World Sport in that same ice blue. It served me well through college and beyond and I often think fondly of it, and that it would have made a great fixed conversion had I been able to hold onto it.
Keep trying to kill it. It'll probably out-live you.
