Merckx owners thread

Hi, I was wondering if anyone here could tell me if this is a legitimate Eddy Merckx before I go ahead and buy it? I'm viewing it tomorrow and I'm not sure of what to look out for, if anyone would also be able to have a guess at what year it would've been made that'd also be really handy as I'm hoping it'll be suitable for L'eroica this year? Thanks guys

As far as i know Eddy Merckx began making frames in the early 1980s with initial guidance from De Rosa and his output was strictly high end racing frames which this is not i'm afraid to say.

The braze ons on this that are the real give away are the mudguard eyelets, the pump pegs and worst of all the lamp holder boss on the front forks that is just gagging to be fitted with an early 70s Ever Ready Miner's lamp with those disgusting old batteries that leaked chemicals and died before the evening was over.

Like the man said AVOID!
