+1. I (whispers) don't normally like BJ's that much. That's the nicest one I've seen I think.
I hope someone buys the lot and builds it up.

sorry I meant seatpost not stem .
I have taken delivery of my beloved and now renovated Bob Jackson frame. I had intended to build it up as a geared bike and had been quietly amassing the necessary stuff over the past 6 months or so.
However, now that I am in the position to complete the build, events have overtaken me and this is now a project that I am unlikely to finish. So my loss is your gain.
I can sell everything as a one lot or separately. It comprises the following:
Bob Jackson Frame
Bob Jackson Grand Prix frame in antique gold with yellow infill panels. All the paintwork and decals are new and carried out by Bob Jackson.
Size: 55cm top tube and 55cm down tube
BB: english threaded
Seatpost: 27.2mm
Dropouts: Campag long
The frame has just been completely renovated by Bob Jackson. They have fitted a NOS Shimano 105 headset and have moved the rear brake bridge to fit 700c wheels and short drop brakes. They have also fixed the seatpost clamp to an allen key fitting and have added two gear lever braze ons.
There is some slight damage to one of the downtube decals (see picture). Bob Jackson have agreed to repair the decal if desired.
Wheels
Hand made 700cc brand new Mavic Open Pros with Shimano 105 hubs. All in chrome/silver.
The rear comes with a brand new Shimano 10 speed cluster.
Group Set
Shimano 105 group set virtually NOS consisting of
Front and rear brakes (short drop) hex nut fitting
Cranks 170mm with 52 Shimano and 39 suntour chain rings. Both appear to have had little or no use
Gear levers and braze on bosses
Front and rear mechs
Shimano 105 pedals which have cleaned up well but have scratches on the underneath but the chrome on the traps etc is immaculate.
I am awaiting a set of non-aero 105 brake levers which whilst may not be of same cosmetic standard as the rest of the set should compliment it.
I will throw in a UN73 (107mm) english thread which may be of use and an unused Shimano chain.
Satori track bars: Brand new. Aluminium. 38cm wide and clamp size of 25.4mm
Satori seat post Brand new. 27.2. never fitted.
Saddle: San Marco Supercorsa Concor saddle in brown leather. There is a tear on the rear of the saddle (see photos). Very obviously used but looking good with plenty of life left in it.
Price: Everything: £700
otherwise
Frame: £400
Wheelset: £250
Group set : £100
Saddle : £25
Seat post : £16
Bars: £30
BB: £7
Chain £5
I will post in the UK. If you want everything the postage is included and I have a massive box to put everything in, otherwise it will depend on item and distance.
I would prefer to sell everything so I am not splitting for a few days. If it does not sell complete then I will split.
You can PM me or dibs an item in the thread but money talks and it is the one who can deliver the dosh who gets the goods. All money to be paid by paypal.
I am based in NW London. PM me if you want to come and have a look at the bike. However, I am busy over the next few days so may not be able to respond immediately to PMs or posts and requests for information.

I have included three photos showing what part of the frame looked like before it was renovated.
