oh that poor Bianchi. was the 600 group on it when you got it? was there ever a tubing decal on on it?
others I am sure will tell you unless you are going or a full restoration on something like a Herse or Hetchins you seldom your your investment back from a paintjob.
there is nothing wrong with the Gipimme (we called the gip me) dropouts. late in the '80s early '90s Bianchi used them on most of their bikes.
