Why**********?

I just picked up my 74 Varsity in Tiffin, Oh.
(it was listed on CL and my friend scored it for me)
He said it was in great shape....When I saw it I crapped.
It was a rust bucket and tires were flat.
Brought it home and put air in the tires....They held.
Gave the componenets/nuts and bolts a WD40 wash(I know..sorry).
Made a few adjustments and took the bike out for a ride and I loved it.
I have a few nice classic/vintage bike around, but this old varsity stole my heart.
BTW, I do not plan on detailing the bike as I need this one for Va. Beach at the end of the month.(I hope nobody has a keen eye and a good set of bolt cutters there).
To boot, there is a red Tiffin Police bike license sticker on it with the number 0666...
Here is the Lime green Devil......why do I like this bike so much?
Is it the green, or the devil?
\I stole the joker in the spokes idea from a pic I saw here and put some small gold 666 numbers on the top tube for kicks. Those that have seen it like it
