I owned a 1972 Bottecchia Special, same exact color and equipment as this one, save the leather saddle. New it was only Approx. $120.00 then. As said, $350.00 is way to high. Use Randyjawa's web page as a guide on restoring this bike. I'd actually like to find and rebuild a Special as a daily rider. It was a great bike as a first road bike for a 15 Y.O kid.
