Eye candy Paramount tandem
Always a treat to go to my LBS and see what kind of cool or oddball thing they may have on any particular day
HAvent posted in a while, but a couple months back I peeped this drool worthy tandem that was being prepared for shipment to some other lucky couple
Incredible fillet brazing---
anyway - here's the pics of this museum quality rig

That's about our size (I'm 5'8", wife is 5'6"), and she would have liked the color. 
A rare find, indeed.

That is a nice one. I wish I could get "Gumby" that clean.

Very cool!
Interesting solution with those Specialites TA rings. Better keep that front derailleur well adjusted.

same as mine
I have a blue 1972 ladyback tandem paramount as well. A great example of what could be done by Schwinn if they set their mind to it. What year was that tandem? Any guesses? Mine is used some so is not that clean but the brazing is amazing!
