here's a pic of my GJ with gold lined headbadge. other pics show the where the tubing decal was located, tho u can't see it, on the other side of the tube, there was still a little bit left and you could definitely see the green reynolds lettering. now i wish i could've taken a better pic of the rear drops, but they were definitely campagnolo.
