My girlfriend's birthday was this past friday and I haven't been online much because I was trying to get things ready for her party, i.e. paint the deck, yard work, etc. well she came down with a fever last tuesday which resulted in a trip to the hospital that night, and some prescriptions which didn't seem to help as the night before her birthday we were back at the hospital and her fever was 103. I thought it was west nile, the doctors thought it could have been viral menengitis. They were on the verge of giving her a birthday spinal tap when her cat scan came back clean and decided it was probably a very severe viral sinus infection. Her party was postponed, she's been crabby all week (I can't blame her) and while she's been napping I've been in the garage tinkering away.

amidst all that what I bought on ebay showed up: http://ebay.com/<blah>

Item: 7170925476

well the description is lacking, and the photos horrible, and that's probably why I got it at the price I did. I opened the box and pulled it out and was puzzled by what I saw. On the top tube, are the TEAM RALEIGH, decals, but downtube has RECORD decal. WHAT THE HELL DID I BUY? I checked the archives and there isn't much info. The bike is full 531 with campy dropouts. Serial number is: WB900 1286 so it was made in 79 at the carlton shop in england? Someone in the archives mentioned that these might have been sold as framesets in europe? that could explain the parts on it. a 72 rear NR derailleur, early dura ace hubs, gran compe calipers, campy levers. any info would be greatly appreciated.
