I have this Bottecchia Columbus TSX frame which I think dates from the late 80's. It looks like its an anniversary/special edition frame but I just do not have any real knowledge of retro road bikes. It is in good condition but I have ridden fat tyres all my life and would like an idea of value before I put it up for sale. Any help would be appreciated. There were also components which I have taken off it which I may post pictures of later as I would appreciate an idea of value of these as well. Here are some pics, apologies for the poor camera work!

Sorry I meant to post this in the how much is this worth but failed miserably. Could somebody please move it.
 
Re:

I am trying to find a realistic value for it and posted it in the wrong section. For the record the frame is about 23 inches ctc all though I will confirm all measurements when I put it up for sale.
 
Thank you Shaun that little car brings a smile to my face every time I drive it and I can actually maintain it myself! Richie
 
Re:

Looks good, without seeing detailed pics you could probably ask £350 on here or £450 with best offer on eBay and take a hit on the fees.
 
There's been full bikes at £1500 - £2500 on ebay - haven't sold (It's an Equipe or Equipe Professional). I bought one of these in MS tubing for £400 as a full bike in the knowledge that I only wanted the frame / forks / seatpost. Condition wise it's on a par with yours so I reckon LDP has got it right at £350.
 
Cant move this as a whole to the other thread so it would be best to start a new one:

If you use this link to start the new one I can delete this one from the general thread.
Cheers
