FS: Legnano Gran Premio. Pretty sure this is an early 60s model, if not 1960.

Original green paint (more left than not)

Stenciled DT logos

Headbadge and seat binder bolt intact

Legnano branded (Magistoni?) cottered cranks. I have the original cotters (removed, probably not reusable). I have replacements, but haven't worked on them.

Legnano branded (Campagnolo) HF hubs laced to Fiamme blue label tubulars

Campagnolo GS front and rear derailleurs

Universal Extra brakes (no hoods)

Ambrosio Champion stem

Legnano bars

No pedals

Campagnolo dropouts and fork ends (cast, not stamped)

Tubing not identified, but I would assume it's Falck

Lots of patina

I could keep going, but I'll inevitably misidentify something, if I haven't already. I'll be happy to send to interested individuals a zip file containing a bunch of pictures. This is a project I'll never get around to finishing. However, I did start to clean everything and the bike is currently in (mostly very clean) pieces. Depending on your inclinations, there may not be a whole lot to do other than reassemble. NB: I've noticed a tiny crack in the fork crown race. As I wouldn't have been racing this bike, I planned to simply repack and ride. I've been unsuccessful in getting a picture of it.

Would like to get $550 plus actual shipping (buyers choice of shipper). Please let me know, gently, if you think I'm asking too much.
