That is flat out nice! Finally! I know you've been looking for one of those for about 4 years.
 
I skipped on one about 6 years ago and been on the hunt ever since.this one sat on local for 2 months and the guy slashed the price right in my range.i'll get it torn down in a week or so and freshen up the bearings and lube the cables.next step is finding correct tires.a local guy says he has a nos set for 40 bucks.we'll see.
 
Good job on that one, very clean! The only thing that looks to be missing is the monster SunTour 14-38T freewheel. I'd give Charlie Harper a call as I know last summer he was selling several of these and may have one or two left. Here is a NOS example currently on the 'bay, however note that it carries a ZB ('83 Feb.) date code: http://www.ebay.com/itm/191491435762
 
I remember Charlie was selling some freewheels a while back.have to scrape up some dough soon and get it swapped out.this will be my daily rider once I get it dialed in.
 
I'm dying right now.the bike is sitting home in a cold,dark garage and I'm out running around Oregon and Washington.seperation anxiety at it's worst.

Don't get to freaked out. If she really loves you, she'll still be there in the garage when you get home. :p
