Howdy folks.

I have almost collected all the parts to do a just barely OT but I think KOF build of a 1984 frame set with a (mostly) 1984 Record/Super Record gruppo. The last thing I need is an English threaded BB. I have an Italian one that is used but good that I would like to trade. My spindle is marked "70 - SS" and the bearing surfaces all seem smooth. The fixed cup has the raised rings at that outside edge and spindle hole (thin cup?) with the threaded/rifled spindle holes. The adjustable cup is nice and the lockring has just a bit of deformation at two of the notches. The fixed cup has been manhandled a bit, but not to the point of affecting functionality. I would love to trand for an English one in similar condition. Any takers? Thanks in advance :^)
