I did, and ordered the same frame from a different ebay seller, who shipped the next day. This thing shipped on the 2nd, got here today, rather than October 22nd...
Just need to wire it up and throw the chain on.

Did a pretty mellow 17 miles in the neighborhood and on the riverside path. There was so much water today that the LA River almost looked like a real river.

Dude, why didn't you make a new thread to chronicle your build step by step?
Don't worry, I have it copied, I wrote it in MS Word first, cause its gonna be really in depth and great and awesome.
Was offered two very tempting very sw8 fixays. So many sw8 fixays, so little money. Rent? What's that?
Today I logged in to EAI. So many NOS parts, so little money.
Still kicking.

Got the armadillos off the merckx and put on a pair of PRO3s. Amazing the difference. that bike has come alive.
Well that's a website I didn't need to know existed.
I've been looking everywhere for these, I know you can't share what the prices are, but would you care to play a higher/lower game with me...? $125?

Looks good, too much black and white through; needs red accents.
Seller was a_baygoods:
https://myworld.ebay.com/a_baygoods/&...84.m1439.l2754
Same seller I bought the wheelset from, generally arrives in less than two weeks, about 8 days. He packages very well.

realized i can get discounts on soma, pake and cinelli. oh crap, life over.
I can't look at it right now but that is one of the things I too want. My SR doesn't have down tube braze-ons but I want 8 speed index dt shifters.
There was a good thread a few weeks ago on C&V about the long term availability of NOS parts. Apparently there are warehouses stocked with old parts and hoarders with stock piles of parts that they won't give up.
