was this a real Merckx?
Plenty of pictures....

I was wondering if this was a team-issue frame? Also, what is the "T" engraved on the chainrings and into some of the lugs?
Is this a repaint of a similar vintage (early '70s) frame of another make, or the real deal?

^^^I know! It gets really annoying when you're only looking for one in particular.
