Any idea of the year/model?
call me crazy, but i think the patina looks great. i would build it as is.
my girlfriend picked up an old low end bianchi out of the classifieds that had nice wheels on it, we sold the wheels for more than we paid for the bike, then built it up with with a chorus 3x8 component group i had and ended up with a great little 22lb bike. a lot of the campagnolo parts were either NOS or mint condition and the contrast with the scratched and abused bianchi frame it ended up looking pretty neat. she is happy with it at least
