80's Faggin Frame

I'm out of town this week and stumbled across this ad in the local classifieds. Looks intriquing and it's just the right size. Might be good for a fixie...

$200 for the frame, fork, headset, bars and stem.

Is it worth a closer look? What is Columbus Tretubi?

-----------------------------------

1980s Faggin frame, columbus tretubi tubing, dope lugs with detail, french color scheme (not american, haha), gipiemme dropouts, chrome fork with Faggin on the top sides, chrome rear end with outline, Faggin stamped on the non drive side BB shell, rear brake hole post has some painted lug detail, a big F cutout on the bottom of BB shell, no dents or dings, only some paint chips and tire wear on chainstays, it has tight rear end and looks dope. Bars and stem are not included, the 600 headset is, though. I was going to build it up as full campagnolo road bike, but decided gears are not for me right now and am going to finish my track bike build up. toptube=56 seattube=59.5, could be off as I only have a tape measure used for tailoring.
