City/pub bike.

Under 500$
Older steel frame, downtube shifters
permanent full fenders (though, I'll go minimalist like the Krud Catchers)
optional front rack
priest bars

I was going to pick up a friend's late 80's c'dale criterium, but he backed out and wants to keep it. Would have been 100$ for everything but saddle/pedals. Lame.

The hunt continues. Ideally I would find something that had frame, fork and drivetrain/shiftybits only in size ~53/54.
