Colnago Super Mexico
An impossible dream - I offered $150 for the size 63cm with Campy. The seller says it's mine if it's the best offer. I promised to clean her up and ride her.

FYI: There's no such bike as a Colnago "Super Mexico." There's a "Super" and there's a "Mexico." Different animals. They look the same some years, but the Mexico is a bit more rare, lighter, and special. Some have special gruppos; some don't. A Super is not a Mexico, even if it has a decal that happens to mention Merckx's World Hour Record set in Mexico City. That bike is a Super, (or maybe a Nuovo Mexico or Essa Mexico), unless it has a chainstay decal to the contrary or a decal indicating it has special, lightweight Columbus tubing (doubtful in that size).
Sounds like you might be counting your chickens a bit?
