Hope you all had a great Thanksgiving.
I acquired an old, run-down racing cycle the other day which after about thirty years of hard work still had some Campag bits on, so I thought I´d break it and dispose of the rest. Well, it wasn´t as simple as I thought.
The frame is decaled COPPI, cheap b/b shell, shoddily made (one lug point brazed so badly you can poke a fine screwdriver under it), but on the other hand it says COPPI on the saddle, saddle pin, and dropouts. Is it as bad as I think, shall I relieve the world of its existence?
I also found Universal 125 brakes on the bike. Same question: High quality keeper, or use them up on some hack bike?
Thanks for any answers, and remember I´m not very knowledgeable about Italian cycles.

P.S.: In the case of a sudden disruption of an e-mail conversation with me, please assume that I have given up the medium and contact me in a more traditional way. I am in the trial phase of a last ditch system after some others could not stand my constant abusing them.
