For Sale: 531 Pennine frame, chrome and cheap

1950's Pennine road frame, seattube 56cm c/t, toptube 56cm c/c
This was my first fixed gear conversion(sniff) built on the morning of the first tweed run, comes as pictured with bars, chainset and brakes.

Orginially built to take 27" wheels but 700's work fine with the weinmann brakes fitted, geo is a little slack by modern standards so looks better with mudguards to fill the frame up. Nice Agrati forward facing dropouts with mudguard eyelets
It is 531 and takes a 27.2cm seatpost, lamp and pump bosses. There is remnants of the 531 sticker which I knackered putting it in a workstand.
Chrome is pitted all over with clear blue laquer panels on downtube, seat and head tubes. The seatstay join also has a nifty little handpainted pine tree which I've seen on a couple of other Pennine frames. Patina is heavy but awesome.
BB could do with an overhaul and the chainset will need new cotterpins.
GB spearpoint stem with hole for centrepull brakes.
Could do with new tape on the bars as it's a bit manky. Will make a perfectly servicable beater or ratty road build(was thinking of rebuilding it geared recently).

I am asking for the grand sum of £70 for the frame as pictured. Just add wheels and seatpost/saddle/pedals and it's ready to go.
Cash on collection only(N5), don't have time to send it tbh so will only post if I don't get a London buyer.
Apologies for crappy iPhone pics.
Dibs followed by pm. No pm = no dibs.
Will have plenty of other stuff up for sale soon as well, few pairs of bars, 2x unused black corsa saddles, loprotracktandem frame etc etc
SOLD

I'm very tempted by this, but I have one Pennine already and no room for another. Though I could maybe make room for a serviceable beater. Argh.

Will you take £40 mate?

its only been up a couple of hours and you want me to offer a 40% discount? no thanks, mate.

Oh, go on then. Dibs.

Out of interest, is there a significant weight difference between 531 and 531c? I'm looking for a light steel frame, and I have a 531c, so dunno how much heavier this one is.

There are many flavours of 531. 531 double butted is similar in weight to 531c, 531 plain gauge is significantly heavier.

I recently sold a 52cm Peugeot with 531 butted main tubes and forks, that was surprisingly light.

There are a few other variable beyond what tubeset is used - best stick it on some scales. Better still, take it for a test ride.
