Interesting frame if the paint is original (seems unlikely given the seller says WB braze-ons were added), but easily one of the worst and most annoying auctions I've ever seen, with one photo and a tiny low quality video with music (why?) attempting to function as a replacement for a good photographic documentation of the bike.
