Whitcomb?
Saw this ad and I have absolutely no clue what it is. Quick search didn't reveal much of anything. Says Campy, Cinelli, and Maillard parts... https://newyork.craigslist.org/fct/bik/1577089911.html

No brainer at $100, surprised it isn't gone. Perhaps the seller just left the ad up. There was a thread somewhere about Whitcomb.

Witcomb, I think, started out in England then moved to the US for a short period. A friend of mine has a Witcomb--it's a great bicycle, and has a weird mix of DA 7400 and Campy Record.
If it's still there, $100 is a fantastic price.

Yeah, I emailed the seller after the first 2 comments but never got a response. Oh well! Hopefully someone else here picked it up.
