Unknown Bianchi value?

https://saginaw.craigslist.org/bik/5757013250.html

Saw this right after it was listed and contacted the seller, anyone have any information on the model and value?It looks like it needs a good cleaning and redoing but it looks like its all there. I dont know my Bianchi`s that well so any help is appreciated thanks!

I wonder if it is Canadian? I don't think I ever saw a Bianchi like that before. The frame looks late '80+, dual bottle bosses and pump peg, but the chrome fork is unusual for a US bike and the chrome rear triangle is very strange as in the internal cable routing.

For a $100 I would go look. Even if it isn't a Bianchi if it is real chrome on the rear triangle and has good dropouts it is likely to be a good rider.

Since I`m up near Canada it could be a Canadian model. I asked the seller about how the paint was on it cause it looked faded, he said it wasn't the original color and the clear on the decals was wrinkled along with the oxidation on the chrome. I was going to take a look at it tomorrow I think

See what is the stay caps and drops. Again I think I would pick it up if it fit and had good drops.
