This one had a more interesting story. After the customer bought it, the car carrier he hired caught fire and all the cars got crispy.

But I'm with you. I prefer everything Dave designs. Plus, he's a VW guy which always scores points with me. I think I'm going to install a set of his door handles on my Ghia.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...dc58e53064.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...8c737ad107.jpg

Really wanted one of those but in the “Orange Crush” version, but ended up with a 10 speed instead. More gears ;)

Me too. But probably couldn't afford it back then. If I remember they were about $89 where as a new non-Schwinn was about $59 at the time or something.

I got the clone model... But I turned out okay.... Uh, didn't I?... :ugh2:

Went back to see what you & Old Guy were drooling over :ugh2:
Dad told ma about this bicycle he bought back in 1950 or maybe 51, was a Black Phantom by Schwinn....seemed like it was 50 or 60$, can’t remember right off. But had a paper route & saved up his money to buy :tup:
He can still to this day tell you every detail about it :icon17:
I’ll have to ask this morning otw to work about the year & cost

Been off the air for a while.
My 86 year old father passed away on January 8th after being taken to the hospital on New Year’s Eve. As the executor of the estate I had pull together all of the arrangements and, with 8 siblings, you can only imagine it was a bit overwhelming.

But I’m back now......... so what did I miss ? :bowrofl:

Sorry to hear Rick; my dad is 85 & 8mos......:ugh2:
Though he maintains a pretty strict schedule for himself; I can tell that he’s gone down a bit over past year or 2.
Glad your dad lived a long life & I cherish the current days I spend with mine :tiphat:
