Let’s see some late 70’s/early 80’s Cruisers and Spitfires

-
It got a bit late so my pictures are dark but here is my 1980 Spicy Chestnut Cruiser celebrating its 42nd birthday today. Wanted to take a picture with some other 42 year olds so I obliged.

The deluxe has been featured on this thread before. Thanks to cabe member @hm I am the new caretaker.

I’ve been looking for a red Spitfire (I looked at quite a few before acquiring this one-an Oct ‘79 build date) to complete having all four original paint stock colors of Spitfires/Cruisers.
Had the four out for some bike shed organizing yesterday so took a couple of pics.
2 ‘79 Spitfires, ‘80 Cruiser, ‘81 Cruiser 5.
