Finally riding a big boys bike
My father had a black one just like the OP- after moving up from a Columbus main tubing Italvega I got for him at cost at the Bicycle Peddler where I worked In Indianapolis the summers of 73 and 74. He started racing Veteran's Division after I started racing in '71. Just about killed himself up in Glen Ellen, and just as my own Senior race was starting off, but still kicking at 93 today.

Wore out three sets of tires already!
The silver '72 looks strange to me without any chrome...especially since it appears to be a P-13.
If it hasn't been repainted, it must have been ordered that way, reflecting the tastes of the original buyer.

Any ideas on the year of the blue one? Yeah the silver bike is nice original paint and decals.

Unfortunately the bike I picked up no longer has a legible serial number. All I can see is the letter "C", March I guess.
Based on the Campagnolo Record hubs it's from 1966.
At some point in it's previous live somebody went through the trouble to completely remove the finish. It was covered in orange paint when I found it on Craigslist. The seller knew nothing about the bike, nor its history.
While it doesn't have a head badge it's pretty certain it's a Paramount. I'll post it in its own thread in a bit with proper pics and a detailed list of the components.
