Anyway, I'm now obsessed with finding one of these in my size. Amazing. And retailed for $1,300 in '83, huh? That wasn't cheap. Does yours have the lugged front derailleur braze-on?
Whoever is getting that baby is a lucky, lucky bugger. That person would probably have to have a Team Miyata ride with Zaphod in the near future.
Also...I'm not sure it's an 88'. Looks a bit earlier than that to me, and I think it was double butted, not triple splined.
