Does anyone have any information on owners of a 1970's company called Pacifica Mfg.?

It would help to know where it was located - state at a minimum, and preferably city.\n\nIf you have that info, you can check the Secretary of State's office to get information on who filed the incorporation or other legal formation documents (if it was a corporation or partnership). If it was a sole proprietorship, then you may be able to track it down through fictitious business name filings in the county where it was located.

It sounds like you're wanting to know who owns that slogan. If it's been registered as a Federal trademark, check with the USPTO.\n\nHope that helps! I wish you much success & happiness in all your ventures!

I live in Omaha, and I have never heard of such a company.  I just looked it up in the yellow pages and I didn't see anything there.  I would assume that it is long gone.  Maybe there is some history to this company if you can find any other connection to this business.  I was unable to find anything in the books or online.  Sorry

Vintage Bicycle Discussion Area\nVintage Lightweights\nVINTAGE LIGHTWEIGHTS:   1970's Japanese Racer\nPosted by J.T. on 7/30/2004 at  1:12:04 AM \nI bought a race/road bike from a thrift store the other day. It has been repainted and I don't know who made the bike. It is a ten-speed with multiple Sun Tour components. It has a Shimano 333 Stem Shifter and Shimano 27" Wheels. The brakes, handle bars and front derailer are diacompe. There was foam padding on the handle bars but I replaced it with tape. When I removed the padding there were two inscriptions. On the left hand bar there was an ivy wreath. Inside the wreath it says "Japan Champion". On the right hand bar it says "KB". Anyone know wjo made the bike?\nby: 67.5.136.119 \n\n\n--------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\nNavigation: \n  oldroads.com \n    Top of Vintage Lightweights Discussion Area \n      First message in this thread \n\n        Replies:\n       RE:VINTAGE LIGHTWEIGHTS:   1970's Japanese Racer posted by JONathan on 7/30/2004 at 6:14:51 AM \n Not too much to go on. Fins, gills and scales...what kind of fish is it? If you have names for the cranks, wheels (hubs and rims) and freewheel type and make, the field could be narrowed a bit. The higher quality Japanese imports from the '70's were: Fuji; Miyata; Nishiki; Univega (Nishiki); Centurion; Bridgestone; Panasonic; and a host of branded Schwinns. The assumption is US imports. Canada had several others. Sekine comes to mind.\nPost a picture of the frame so the lug work and seat-stays are discernable. This can be matched up with known models for a good guess. The alloy "Champion" bars indicate a good quality bike. There were other quality rides, such as Kobe and Nakamura, etc., but these were fewer, at least from my experiences spotting VLW's. A serial number can be useful as gifferent makes had different number schemes and location on the frame.\nGood luck, JONathan\nNote: Sounds like a great commuter bike; the more generic looking the better, IMHO. Even lousy paint protects against rust. \nby: 67.118.246.240  \n\n       S/N, please posted by John E on 7/30/2004 at 2:34:23 PM \n In addition to more details on components and lug details, please post the serial number. Kawamura, Nishiki's framebuilder, punched S/Ns such as KS78091 (my 1971 American Eagle Semi-Pro) on the bottom of the BB shell. \n\nThe 333 indicates lower-end early 1970s Shimano components. I am guessing your bike weighs about 15kilos=33lbs. A lighter weight would indicate something better and/or newer.\nby: 66.185.168.82  \n\n       RE:VINTAGE LIGHTWEIGHTS:   1970's Japanese Racer posted by J.T. on 7/30/2004 at 5:28:19 PM \n The crankset has the same KB inscribed on it.

I have a Kabuki that is made by Bridegstone. One way to see is to check the lugs for magnetic response. They used Al lugs and thermal bonding, way ahead of the times. I would check mine for serial number, but it is second tier location. Another thing is to look for "integral derailer hanger" and check for forged dropouts. This would make it a keeper, for sure.\nUnless it was a Schwinn "varsity" with its unique construction, the identification of the myriad look-alikes is tough without decals and/or stickers. Unless there is a specific serial number provenance. Have you given it the test ride? The better bikes ride better, so you could then narrow it down to maybe a dozen makes.\nGood luck and happy rides,\nJONathan\nby: 67.118.246.2  \n\n       Nishiki posted by J.T. on 7/30/2004 at 8:21:46 PM \n Doing some of my own research I stumbled upon the Nishiki logo.
