Bought this the other day. Had to negociate a bit. The guy bought it six months ago for way too much, and have probably done dusty path on it and kept it too long in a humid place.
One may notice a strange bend in the handlebar drops...
Guess what was cut ?
Yes, I agree with you. -_-#
Anyway, I disassembled every bit of the full Shimano 6400 groupset (headset and hubs !). Everything is a bit greasy but in good shape. Replaced upperbearing of the headset.
Used some blue paint at some places...
The brazings, color and chrome are actually very nice :
Not a very prestigious columbus but at least it is butted
Gonna rebuilt it as it was for now (minus pedal, handlebars and saddle), then we'll see... ;)

Meanwhile, I'm trying to build a tri-bike :
