hi bob,
mine sounds just like yours, except my fork legs are painted. it also has the holes in the lugs, does yours? does your bike have the 'c' in the fork crown like the auction bike? mine does not - i had associated that with the 27.2 frames, much like the seat cluster buttons. it's serial number 83125, so i also assumed it is a 1983. i've never seen one with a higher serial number that also had the holed, pressed lugs, and would like to know if anyone else has; i'm curious to know who has 'the last of the breed.' ...
the bike at auction (220089356230) intrigued me mostly because of the shifter mounting, the over-bb routing, the portacatena holes, and the 'c' logo on the crown, all of which i thought were unusual for an SC of apparently the same vintage as ours.

I have always dated mine to 1983. Its still has a 26.2 seat
post and 126mm spacing at the rear. Same chrome fork as bike in question
but just chrome dropout faces in the rear .Identical decaling.Cables are
routed under the BB
