At the risk of offending those who don't like repeated pictures, here is my '71 P-13 that had very few (less than 500) miles when I bought it two years ago for just shy of $900 on the Bay. It had the original Weinmann wood filled rims which are still laced and stored, it had and still has the original Schwinn vinyl bar tape and Campy bar end shifters. I removed the Weinmann brakes and replaced with period correct Campy brakes and have put about 200 more miles on it since then. It is definitely my special occasion bike and is something I have lusted after since being a teenager back in the day. I have since changed these wheels for a set with Mavic Module E rims and have skinwall tires on it now:
