Is a price-list included?

only around 9000 of these made, and i'm not sure but i think only some of that 9000 were 753, soon they'll be unobtanium.

Does look like a nice frame and I guess from the frame number around 1980 ?
Its going to look the business when finished with new decals .

Indeed only a small number of frames came from Ilkeston. As far as i know mostly 753 but also 531. The 27.8 mm seat post is needed for this tubing.

you mean 26.8?

yes ofcourse 26.8 !!!! thanks for being sharp.
