Love this thread. I have a 1966 Collegiate 5 Speed Coppertone that's all original I am cleaning up. Once I am done I'll post, she looks new.

Here's my 1966 coppertone Collegiate I mentioned above. All OG except Brooks saddle & Kenda repops!

Here's the rarest of the Gold Standard. Owner is Pedalsnostalgia.
Only one that is known to exist. L2 November 30th 1962 serial number. The Corvettes first year for the Coppertone color was 1963 and this is a 1963 model. The last run of the 5 speed Corvettes had 09/04/1962 stamped serial numbers.

Started out as a very worn out 64 stingray. Multiple holes drilled in the frame and guard. I couldn’t save it so I customized it.

Speaking of gold, here a real gold Schwinn.
Does gold plating count as a color? Not mine but i did see it in person, early 70's gold-plated Schwinn Varsity. Here's a link to the story behind the bike (a Schwinn contest for dealers at the annual convention). http://www.schwinnbikeforum.com/index.php?topic=11818.0

It appears that the SBF is still down and out.

It's been that way for going on 2 months.
