Hello!
I have just acquired my first Ron Cooper....and i am terribly excited! its in original condition.....
which is dirty/greasy some paint chipping and transfer peeling/missing but the overall structure is sound as a pound!
It is very similar too some of the other bikes on this thread and judging by the components it came with i would say its from about 1975-79.
maybe one of you guys might know the date a little more accurately?? frame no.778

it came kitted out with pretty much all dura ace first gen (black) groupset in grubby but working condition
so i'm taking it all off for a good reconditioning!

so i'm on the lookout for:

shimano crane rear derailluer
dura ace first gen wheelset to swap with the campy record gear i have currently.
seatpost
pedals

then i'll be set!

here's some pics of her:
