One Owner 1966 Coppertone 2 Speed kickback Tiger

[Derek499]

I had the opportunity to buy this amazingly original coppertone tiger from the original owner. He had just pulled it out of his dad’s storage where it sat for about five decades. This is the nicest Schwinn from the 60s period I’ve ever had the pleasure to own. Even the tires are original and in excellent condition. This will be cleaned and displayed in my house like a work of art.
This bike is honestly my favorite recent purchase of many expensive bikes. It came up for sale near me and I jumped on this very quick.

This is definitely getting patched and not replaced

Looks like a really nice original bike, nice Tacoma, too! And I see the sweet acacias are blooming, I LOVE that smell.

I just picked up a '65!
Mine needs a headbadge, and a rear fender reflector.

A buddy of mine had one just like yours as his paper route bike fifty years ago,
always thought that was a cool color. Thanks for the memories.
