Miele Gara
Just picked up an old Miele Gara road issue at my local Goodwill for a couple of bucks. It's actually in pretty good condition, I believe the frame was made in Canada, rims in Italy, Shimano 600 group set. Just wondering what it's value is ( I'm guessing more than $2 
Any thoughts appreciated.

Sounds like the OP got a great buy indeed but I don't think he has a million dollar find on his hands. Any pics?

I have a 1990 Gara. I think most of the Garas were 3 tubes Chromor, the '90 was an all tube year. I paid $100, bought off of ebay (local so I didn't have to pay add'l shipping) for mine. Rideable at that price point, but needed a good freshening; and I've stripped mine down to go even a little further.
