Wore out three sets of tires already!
You just don't see these ever. Any knowledge on what's it worth?
Thanks!

It looks quite complete
These share many parts with the Tourist Paramount.
I'd value at 4-500'ish as it sits.
But values have been climbing..
 
@ace, I think this is the first time I've seen a quadrant shifter used with a derailleur. Are there any markings to tell who made it?
 
If I an not mistaken , that looks like the Cyclo Deraileur conversion for the SA hub. This would have been a dealer add-on in the day.
"These share many parts with the Tourist Paramount." I think the only common parts that are used on the Paramount Tourist would be the Fenders, rear Hub and Stem.
