The cable routing over the top of the bottom bracket is consistent with Nuovo Racing and the lack of chrome on the fork crown (assuming is wasnt painted over) seems to rule out Campione D'Italia and Campione Del Mondo. And Nuovo Racing came in White and Celeste, which matches the little bit of white I have seen under the few scratches on the frame. So I think I am going with 1983 Nuovo Racing. Still seems like a good buy for $50. Thanks again.
Do you know someone with a Circut? If you can find them I think that woudl look smashing with some purple cables, tape and decals or white on the cable and tape as well as saddly
