Mine are long gone. I had a Le Champion with all Campy Nuovo Record. It was a metallic pink, which I had painted to gun metal gray.
I also had a commuter bike I built up from the frameset of an old Mirage. It rode nicely but was butt ugly, which was a feature, not a bug. The handling was a bit odd. It liked it when I loaded it down with baggage.
