I've passed on a few in the past, but this time figured why not. 1982 412. Went off of a non-drive side photo and paid $125. Surprised to see the Suntour Blue when I picked it up. Bought from original owner and he obviously took excellent care of it before storing it the last few years. After calculating the possible upgrades on the drive to get it, I talked myself into leaving it alone on the way home. It probably deserves to stay original - or put back in a freezer bag. This bike is why I will never buy something with bad paint. You shouldn't have to. I counted 3 chips to fix. New tires and tape and she'll be all set. The crappy lighting and pics don't do this one justice.
