This top of the line Italian racer was rescued! Typical scratches, lots of nicks and chips, along with rub marks, blistering -flaking paint / chrome, pitting, etc. See pictures, but solid with no dings or dents. Looks great from a foot away and finish is great overall. Well worth of a full blown restoration or as a riders vintage build....
