I just bought a 1968 Bianchi and don't know what it's worth. I'm in WI right now but will be going back to CA. I think it's a low to mid level model. Not sure whether to keep it or sell it.
Here are the specs that I know of:

Frame: Lugged Steel, Made in Italy (not sure what type, no decals)
Rear Derailleur: Valentino Extra Patent Campagnolo
Front Derailleur: Campagnolo (that's all it says)
Gear Levers: Patent Campagnolo
Stem: says "ttt" and "Made in Italy"
Brakes: Universal
Rear Hub: Shimano 333
Saddle: Record M.D. (I think its a Selle)
Wheels: RIGIDA SuperChromix

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

What kind of "help" are you looking for? It does indeed sound like an entry-level type bike. It's probably not worth a whole lot, but then "whole lot" can vary from person to person. I'm guessing couple hundren bucks, maybe. So whether to sell or ride depends on you - and how much you enjoy riding it.
