Ah, of course... I should employ my grade-school comprehension skills next time

$60 is a very good price. You will enjoy it. Do you have the rest of the bike ready to go on it?
Not all the parts, just found that two days ago on CL. I hate to admit it here, but it will not be a restoration project (at least not for it's first re-incarnation).
My wife wants a FG and I've got some parts (obv. need a BB, and I need some wheels). I won't modify the frame at all, so it could be restored at a later date.
I'll take some pics in the coming days before I start the build.
