That must cost a small fortune even back then. Are all the parts there? Did they stop making them? I worked in a bike shop during my later years back in high school to get discounts. Built lots of wheels for them, but I was not allowed to touch the Campy tools, only Park.

I have an old frame built by a local builder 15-20 years ago when he was starting out. Its Reynolds 953. I have never ridden it, only primed. I had it on a frame table and everything is perfectly straight. It was meant to be painted by me when I have some time. Somehow time escaped me. Its still hanging in my storage. My plans was to dig it out and give it a paint job with my company name on the downtube during Covid then work just got stupid busy. After that, I have to find an old friend and see if any of them have a facing tool for the head tube and BB.

Any idea what those decals are called where they are made like a stencil and peel off after painting? I could have easily gotten a frame painter to do the job, but what fun is that? Dangit, now it sits. Who am I kidding, I ride only carbon since the mid 90s.

Hey, how bout' a couple more pics? Don't tell me you have the bottle openers too?
