Good for you! I thought it was really sweet, but too rich for me (though seems like it went for a fair price).

Size was perfect for me, my collection is pretty much focused on early 60's Italian racers, and the price was very fair (in my opinion). So even though I've been trying to buy machine tools and not bikes lately I could not pass this one up. But I am going to have to sell one now!

p.s. and I really wanted to try to get that dent out of the seat-post

Yes, looks like a steel one. I'm hoping I can knock out the dent with a dowel and maybe some heat. Will not be perfect but should be able to make it better.
