So, this is wild!!!
Some of you might remember, that in 2018 I stumbled across one of the extremely rare and much sought after CINELLI Supercorsa "Donna" Ladys versions of the infamous "Supercorsa" classic road model. And I won it for 800,00 Euros (complete bike with full Campagnolo Victory group set). 1983 build year.
You can find the thread I made back then here:

Now, 6 years later I found another one for sale during a very casual, regular Google (image) search which I regularly do just to see if I can find something. I managed to buy my 2nd CINELLI "Supercorsa" Donna version from the Czech Republic. This time 1987 build year, same color!
I am currently in the process of spending a shitload of money at eBay, Kleinanzeigen and in the groups and gathering all the parts. Of course, the Campagnolo C-Record is the desired groupset. Maybe it will be a mix of the 1st and 2nd generation. Maybe only the the 2nd generation. We will see ... No, thank you! No delta brakes
Note, that (what I think) the fork is non original to the frame. My knowledge is, that there never was any Supercorsa ladies model with an unpainted full chrome fork and without the C-logo-panto on the fork crown (at least the later versions from around mid 80s up to today).
I had a little discussion with the seller about that. He persistently claimed that this is the original fork to the frame ... well, we all know thats some bullcrap right there But anyways. If it all works out, I already have the chance to get an original spare retro Supercorsa fork to match the frame and complete it! Already in the correct color! So, that would be awesome.
Here are the very first impressions of the new build and the proud new member of my collection of CINELLI Supercorsas (male and female) and PINARELLO (high class models Record Special, Montello & Gavia):
