Got my wheelset from Prowheelbuliders today and pretty happy with it except my 700 x 25 Paselas rub on the fork, will have to find buy some new rubber. She is coming along but still a ways to go. Was hoping to have done before I leave on vacay; still waiting on seatpost, need pedals, and now tires. Ah, well.

Really nice build - I have a very similar one (not to burst your bubble on the rarity - I hadn't seen many either until I saw your post).
Mine is also '88, blue, main difference is that mine is a 58cm so no SLX tubing, and running Dura Ace group as opposed to Campy (I am now officially jealous of your aero seat post tho - super rad). One thing I notice when looking at yours that made me wonder... your dropouts are painted, mine are not. I have to assume this has something to do with the different tubing but not sure. Anyone have any thoughts on this difference?
