I've got a 1972 Paramount frame that is in need of some love and since I'm solidly into reducing the fleet right now, I wanted to see if any of you are interested in it. I can take some measurements...I think it is roughly 56cm squared...maybe a 56.5 or 57cm seat tube. The chrome is beautiful.

I bought this frameset a couple of years ago here on the forums, but within a few minutes of receiving it, saw that it had a crack in the rear DS dropout between the dropout and the chain stay. To be honest, I don't know if it is so much a crack as it is a 'separation' between the dropout and the stay, like it didn't get completely filled w/ braze, as the separation is at the joint. It was probably ridden like that for many years, as the front of the joint is brazed well and holds together.

It also has some goofiness on the seat tube, where something mashed it in a bit at the center, but that is probably an easy fix. This one is still plenty salvageable!

I just have so many projects and looking to free up some space. Please let me know if any of y'all are interested. I'd love for this to go to someone w/ some torch skills and give it some love. If this fits you, let's talk. Cost of shipping and it can be at your front door
