Acquiring my dream bike...

Greetings to all,
I just joined and looking forward to all it has to offer.
Being a Schwinn bike rider from my childhood days, I had Varsity, Deluxe Varsity, & Le Tour bikes. I had always wanted a Voyageur 11.8 but never was able to afford one, and then I got my license and that was that for many years. Now in my golden years, I figure it was finally time to fulfill that dream, and after many month of search ebay, I finally found the one I wanted. Then it hung in the garage for the next six years. Finally sent it to my LBS and had all the work needed to get it up and road worthy. So looking forward to get out there and feeling the dream bike under me. What I bought was built in 1981, March 8 I believe from the date code (0671), if I am wrong, please let me know. From the serial number, I believe it is a Osaka-built Panasonic (Serial # 4E08827), again if I am incorrect, please let me know. Any information that anyone can given me on how to built a detailed spec sheet on my bike, please, I welcome any assistance.

Thanks,

Willi
