I wonder were decals can be gotten?
Aluminum is God's gift to aviation, without it flight would be a challenge. And my GT will fly again!
But

it is number three down on the build list

Yes, it was made in Longmont CO,its a pretty early model, - it has some dings on it from use, but , like a few of my other projects, I really just want to get it back together to relive the "good ol days" again ---- I'll never be 24 years old again, but riding the same bike from then can be fun
Glad to see you are getting yours going again
- chain, derailleur, and pedals, - that's another 2.5 lbs give or take, but you'd get some of that back with a light saddle like an SLR or something similar if your caboose can stand those, and some latex tubes
I think that one above was around 18, but that was with tubulars built around Mavic GEL 280 rims
