\r?\n> Jeff,
\r?\n>
\r?\n> Sorry for not getting back to you sooner as I was out of
\r?\n> touch during the holidays. I would like to take you up on
\r?\n> your kind offer of forwarding the pics to Classic Rendezvous
\r?\n> list. Here is a link to my photobucket album. I
\r?\n> don't have the software to reduce the photos and joined
\r?\n> the service. Here is my first try
\r?\n> http://photobucket.com/
\r?\n> what you think about the photos. I just completed a
\r?\n> breakdown and servicing of the bike down to the last nut,
\r?\n> bolt, bearing, and race. I had taken pretty good care of
\r?\n> the bike mechanically when I was racing and afterward when I
\r?\n> used it as an indoor trainer on rollers. The mechanical
\r?\n> bits are perfect and some of the campy grease that I used
\r?\n> for years was even clean. Everything rolls well.
\r?\n>
\r?\n> I have been persistantly been fighting off parting the
\r?\n> bike out. I would like a collector to have the bike for a
\r?\n> fair price. Ed Litton of Richmond, CA I am sure could
\r?\n> bring the frame and chrome back into a pristine state. It
\r?\n> is rare that there is a whole bike like this in such great
\r?\n> mechanical condition with NO DENTS in the frame (always had
\r?\n> a top tube innertube roll taped in place to prevent the bars
\r?\n> from damaging the frame in a crash). The paint and chrome
\r?\n> shows the 44 years of life and for anyone who knows Italian
\r?\n> chrome wasn't the best in the world. Still the frame
\r?\n> lived inside and is in very good shape. It still has the
\r?\n> hard wooden plugs in the seat tube to prevent water from
\r?\n> getting to the BB and in the fork crown about 3 inches to
\r?\n> prevent problems if the fork ever broke.
\r?\n>
\r?\n> I was once a member and remember it was a very active
\r?\n> group. Is Mr. Brown still involved? If you aren't
\r?\n> able to forward this to the CR site please let me know so I
\r?\n> can put the bike on eBay.
\r?\n>
\r?\n>
\r?\n>
\r?\n> Regards
