Need help IDing a vintage Bianchi

[MENTION=159681]Bianchigirll[/MENTION], you are my only hope! Seriously, I hope you are out there....

I'm a 52 year old cyclist who has done my share of racing, charity rides and (lately) Zwifting over the years. My first real road bike was a 1988 Bianchi Sport SX in the gawd awful pink/red that must have been appealing in the 80's. Heck, it wasn't even Italian....I managed to race it for 2 seasons until my Cannondale came along, and then it was an arms race through various aluminum and carbon fiber frames. Now I want to get back into a vintage steel frame. I don't race, or even ride fast anymore. I'm in it now for the vintage aspect of it, the restoration process, and the fun.

I spotted the attached 60's era Bianchi in a local ad. I can't find much about it, but it's Italian, it's Campy, and has a Record saddle, but that's about all I know. I'll admit to just starting my research, but could anyone point me in the right direction? Any ideas? The poor thing needs a lot of help, but I like a challenge.








Thanks much,

Dion
