Could one even get a bike painted and chromed like that today for that price? Very low mile bike from the looks, a little corrosion on the chrome bits on the brake calipers, but who doesn't have spares for those in their Campy junk bins? I see a couple of incorrect bits like the skewers and probably the seat post and the head lugs don't appear to be chromed as stated in the written description.
I think that's the first time I've ever seen Campagnolo brakes set up with "suicide" levers! (Or did old Paramounts come like that too, hmmmmm.....?)
