Wayne, I recall having a pink 770 in our store for sale in 1985. I think the pink one was 1985.

I purchased a Trek 700 series frame from this seller awhile back and before he sent he cleaned it up and found a couple of more very minor blemishes and knocked another $80 off the frame... Two very small paint chips.
Final cost was around $200 on a excellent condition frame w/Cinelli BB shell, S/R Headset and Bottom Bracket!

That Trek is one of Trek's nicer later model frames. I believe it's an '86 because of the Pepto Bismol pink paint, which is a hint when dating Trek's frames. I have an '85 which was originally aqua. Or was the pink before the aqua? Skip?
The 770's were sold as framesets, and as a 770R with a S-Rec (reduced) group. The paint wasn't much, but they're pretty nicely made for "production" bikes, and have nice lugs.

Here's the same frame with a spiffy repaint:
