Great deal on a great bike. If I didn't already have the exact frame, I'd buy it.

That's a solid deal on a great bike. Also these have clearance for pretty fat tires if you go with 700c.
I really like my '73 Moto Grand Record. These got a little better by the late 70s as I believe it had a full Reynolds frame by then. The early ones had a 531 main triangle. Mine has 531 main triangle and fork.

That is the exact year of my Grand Record. I had converted to entirely Campy Record group set but the basic bike is the thrill!
I don't think I have posted enough to the site so no photo to post.
