I know this isn't quite classic or vintage, but the construction and brand are. From what i can tell its a mid 90's Guerciotti cyclocross bike. So far I like it a lot. I know it may be sacrilegious but it will shortly be built up with shimano 10-speed, replacing the worn veloce on there right now. I might keep the cool campy cantilevers though.
Hope you like

Let me know what you intend to do with that right-hand shifter, and perhaps the RD. I have an incomplete Veloce set that had its RH brifter changed to a Sora (gasp).

That bike looks a lot like this old Pinarello someone here owns, although I have forgotten who....

SORA, that ends in a vowel. Isn't that Italian?








Kurt, I just couldn't resist.

I don't know who owns that, but my coworker has an identical Pinarello cross bike he bought this summer from a customer. His is setup with Shimano 600 STI 8 speed with some Dura Ace parts for good measure.

Looking around it seems like perhaps the Pinarello and Guerciotti may have shared lugs but may not have been as well executed. I yoinked this pic from ebay so if its yours, I apologize. I would be interested in seeing an actual Pinarello cyclocross as this example is from a road bike.
Btw, whoever took the picture is a much better photographer than I am!
The above Pinny and mine also share nearly the identical stem. Maybe there is something to the salsa stem?
