Thanks to all for your quick comments.
I know this bike is a fit and I intend to buy if it is all it appears to be in the photos. The seller seems totally legit, just hasn't shown any expertise or enthusiasm for divulging info; sooo.... I have suspected it to have some mystery or secret in its past, that's what I'll be looking for.

Someone commented about no real model names in the 80's but no one mentioned Strada Pro? Where's that name coming from.

One of the draws for me is that I have no vintage Campy, but all my modern roadies are Campy10sp.
And yes, the wheelset is a definate positive as you shouldn't go tubular with only one bike, this would be the 2nd.
Is SLX too light weight for a 200lb rider on a 61cm frame? Honestly, my interest has been stronger for a Merckx with TSX.
