35+ years ago I had a 1930s Schwinn road frame with some bits -- and de-accessioned it prior to a life-changing move across the country. Although I do not at all regret the move, I do regret getting rid of that bike -- never did build it up, but I imagine it would have been be fun to ride...
Someday something like it or your hypothetical '57 Cinelli might surface in my jumbo (65c+ cm) size... if it does I'll be ready!
Or maybe a miracle TWO our size like bikingshearer of any vintage.
