Good week

Tuesday I got the 72 Atala pro for $15 bucks, today I got this 1987 58cm Panasonic DX-5000 with shimano components for $70 bucks at craiglist . Some surface rust but should clean up nice, put some air on the tires and took it for a ride, it's a really nice ride.

Man... not a bad find despite the rust. Oh, and it is an '88 model... Same as mine.

Does yours still have sort of a matte finish to it?
