1978 Atala Grand Prix....Needed An Italian

Seeing as I had a French, English and pseudo-American bicycles, I felt I had to find something that was Italian, and though I perhaps overpaid for this Atala Grand Prix (local CL $280) I'm not unhappy.....yet. The finish is not superb, but not bad given the years and the parts do seem to be all correct with the Campy Valentino gearing, hubs and alloy rims, and even Cinelli "Criterium" bars, which I don't think were standard? It fits my 6' frame well also, though I think the seat will have to go for a used Sella leather saddle. They don't seem to make them with that "Fire" paint color anymore. Just have the 1 photo at moment, will post a couple views when I have the time.
