Here is my newest project, a 1984ish Marinoni Special that I picked up today. It is in pretty good shape overall but I will probably change out the bar tape as it is kinda gaudy, even though it is very good quality tape. The whole thing is 6-speed Dura Ace and it fits me like a glove, I cannot wait to do some long hauls on this puppy.
edit: I have the ugliest cupboards in the city!
Nice bike. Sounds like you got a good deal, curious as to what you think an older Marinoni (not sure if it's "vintage" or not) is worth if you don't mind my asking... there was one on craiglist recently I'm interested in. My old road bike became a one-speed when the freewheel died, sure would like to get back on a geared ride.
