66 Coppertone Collegiate

[TehKernal]

Picked up this Collegiate a couple of months ago, and finally got it back together. I cleaned it up, regreased all the bearings, swapped the Sprint derailleur for a Suntour Cyclone, new tubes, new chain, and changed the headlight and taillight bulbs for LEDs. I’m pretty stoked with how it came out!

So you put a bunch of time/money into it. If you were me you would immediately sale it for a loss. Lol.
Really though looks great and fun bike. Gotta have coppertone! Here is a pic of my Blue Varsity set up similar.
Enjoy!

Sell it immediately, for a loss? You sound like my wife, lol! That’s a good looking Varsity you have there!

That sure is purdy. Coppertone in the sunlight can't be beat.

As found in an Attic, then out tanning in the Arizona sun.

Wow I had a Varsity version of the OPs bike, bought when I was around 11 years old. Brings back some really good memories.

Sweet looking bike. You did a great job!!! Hopefully you didn't build to sell it right away

Thanks! I don’t plan on selling this one, this is the bike I’m going to cruise the neighborhood with.

I’m digging seeing everyone else’s coppertone rides!

Did you notice we have matching tires? I thought that was pretty funny.
