'77 Varsity Muscle Bike

[Schwinndiana]

I came across a thread from 2016 by @schwinnguyinohio (link below) and once I saw this '77 Varsity pop up on marketplace, I knew what had to be done. I didn't take near as many pictures as I should have but here are a few. Still working on the brakes and possibly tracking down some nice fenders but for now it's a fun neighborhood cruiser and great conversation piece.

Cool! I had a 17" sky blue Speedster I got bored with. I briefly contemplated going this route, but sold it instead. I probably should have gone for it.

They're fun bikes! Hope another opportunity comes up for you soon.

Sharp bike! What seat post did you end up running?

I don't no- it was some tall post off eBay. Just kinda threw this together as cheap as possible. Turned out good. Yours turned out good too.
