Help with bianchi identification
Received a bike from my father, he believes he purchased it in in the late 80's early 90's
Basically he replaced the components with Campagnolo Chorus components, however I have no clue what model the bike is.

Assuming you are tall, that is a keeper, with its double-butted Columbus frame. I am guessing mid 1980s vintage. What is the serial number?

If you can post a picture of the front derailleur with the crank, the rear derailleur, and the brakes, we can tell you.
My money is on Campione d'Italia or Veloce.
I'm not a Campy expert, so I can't ID the backside

Sorry I didn't catch that earlier. That can make it very hard to ID unfortunately. Cromor was a seamed tube though, as opposed to drawn. Not one of their upper-tier tubesets, but certainly nothing to scoff at. At least from what I've read. Cd'I may be the closest we can get since their serial numbers are dodgy.
