In an attempt to make my life 'complete' and to move one step further in mimicking that fantastic collection of yours @saarf I've just finished building up the Alan Super Record Cross. Not fully a Campag build but mostly Nuovo Record with some later Record Canti Brakes. Wanted to go with Aero routed brake cables so 'borrowed' the Dia-Compe levers from the Record road bike and fitted the Nuovo ones to that instead. Not a fantastic condition frame but nonetheless the silver colour is quite forgiving. Campag Barcons take a bit of getting used to shifting in reverse but the position is a lot more ergonomic than on the downtube. No more plans for this except to put some miles on it this winter and retire the roadie till the sun comes back out again. It's a 1985 frame and the component ages are a bit all over the place so not a purist build but certainly a good sturdy bike that'll definitely be a keeper.
