IMO, Schwinn "Sky Blue" is the best "blue" for a bike ...
Awesome pick-up.

Re: Look at the 1980 Schwinn Sting I just picked up!
I can't ever remember seeing a sky blue competition. Throw on some oury grips $15, fork decals $25, a new seat and maybe some skin walls (my personal preferance) and you are good to go. The headbadges are easy to find on ebay. Let me know if you need 2 headbadge screws. Ill shoot them over to you for free.
Congrats!
NEEDED:
Desperate for Schwinn stamped brake cable from 79,80,81 or 82.
Jaguar Champion 2 seat in blue!
