Thanks, Mike Short, Austin Texas Mike (and any other interested CR's) In searching through my posts this morning for the 26.2 Jimmy wanted, I discovered thee 27.0 posts out of the several dozens. One is very old, an original (can this qualify as rare?) 180mm (not a cut-down, but an official 180) The next one is the regular 220mm, but the first edition- Steel cradles, no minimum insertion marks This has the original shine on the post, unmarred original top bolts, steel cradles,completely pit-free, and only very slight evidence of having been in a frame with no gouges or cuts. $100 each.
I have a one-bolt Super Record with fluting as well, but this would be about 1981. A nice looker and a tough size to find, I have come to find out after a newrly exhaustive search. This is nearly perfect except for one of those tiny zigzags (well below the fluting) from a small glitch in a frame insertion. $125.
Hope this helps
