I did some parts trading and have ended up with these Campy levers. They're a bit scuffed up right now. I'll take care of that. Of course, these levers will need hoods. But, before I buy some, I'd like to confirm that these are Nuovo Record levers.
Also, where is the good deal on compatible gum color hoods?

Latest update. I decided to go all out with the white.
I've installed the used Campy levers, new compatible white hoods, new white cable housing, and a new white San Marco Rolls saddle. The Velocals chain guard decal came in over the weekend. I have finished it off the overhaul with a Torelli seat bag out of my parts stash.

I like the white saddle and tape -- it looks great! By the way, what did you do to take the scuffs out of the brake levers?

Thanks! I think the bike looks really good from 10 feet away. I haven't done anything to the levers. They look worse in the pics than in real life. I'm keeping an eye out for some Super Record levers.

That's an awesome bike. I just redid my Trek with white tape and housing too. But you added a saddle bag for looks? lol Take that ugly thing off
