Terra Cotta Help

[60sstuff]

I would like to know what month this ‘64 Terra Cotta Varsity is.

It seemed to have sold somewhere around late August of 2019 on this forum.

I’m aware that this was a short lived color in ‘64, so I’m thinking it’s an early build.

Thank you for any help on the date.

Chris.

I wonder if @Dave Stromberger remembers.

As far as the Varsity goes, TC was used throughout the 1964 production. I have one but don't have the serial handy.

sure hope no one attempts to ride it with the stem in that position

doubt there can be more that a mm of engagement with the steerer

That was the sellers picture. I think he left it loose and up after he cleaned it up for the photos.

Nah, I sold the bike a while ago, didn't keep track of the serial #.

In 64 Terra Cotta was also used on the Continentals, Super Sports, Sierras, and Paramounts. The Paramount had this color option for 1963 and 65-66 also.
