I was able to find another one of the five classic Italian rides that I targeted as my base collection. Its straight from Italy. Well, sort of, via carbondale Ill. Evidently a grad student bought the bike in Italy, disassembled it and shipped it back. He never put it together so he shipped it to me! Its got a beautiful airbrushed paint job and chromed lugss, crimped columbus gilco tubing. These are the pics right after I unpacked it. He treated the frame with frame saver in 2010. Other than a few chips its in great shape. The only issue was a small crack in the rear right dropout.I had that welded and other than the paint missing, the repair looks and functions perfectly
A simple inventory of my bikes over the years.
