£450.How much did it go for ?
I'm gambling a little bit that the groupset and wheels just need a thorough clean and service, and that they are lowish mileage. I'm basing that off the admittedly low res pics that seem to show low wear on the chainrings, some anodizing still being on the wheel rims (which at least indicates they haven't been hollowed out) and the fact that it's been sat idle for 25 years. If that's the case I'll be very pleased and will consider it a win. The group is destined for my other Roberts project, another gamble that did work out.
As for the frame, well, looking at the pictures it's really hard to tell, it might be beyond help and I'm prepared for that outcome, the rust around the dent worries more than the dent itself, but I've seen much worse dents repaired and filled, so if the corrosion isn't too bad then I'll have a go at bringing it back.
I'll know more when I pick it up on Saturday, I'll strip it down, clean it up and post more pics.
