Your Stuttgart is a really nice build btw, very close to what Im aiming for.

A nice, white leather saddle seems like a must on this build, suggestions?

Im not swearing by anything, but I think it is this crankset:

Frame came out alright after a coat of wax

The other frame, a Merckx Corsa Extra in Team Telecom colors, is a couple of years younger, possibly from 91/92. It is in good condition, but not as good as the Stuttgart frame, which looks pretty much like new.

I intend to rebuild the Telecom one(in Columbus TSX) with a lot of the components that were fitted when I bought it. There is an issue with the rear dropout alignment and/or the derailleur hanger. I have ordered some tools to try to straighten it up, might need some advice on that later...

Chorus RS group to be fitted on the Telecom:

After a bit of googling, I found that the headset is probably a Miche, and thats Italian enough for me, it stays.

Hi!

I think we can all agree that this is the greatest photo found on the internet:

I´ve been wanting a bike like that for quite a while (more than I´ve been wanting the semi-mullet on the awesome dude).

After some hesitation I got around to buy a frame just like it.

A Corsa Extra in the Team Stuttgart colour scheme (Columbus SLX), or the PK Banken colour scheme as it´s "known" here in Sweden (The bike on the right in the pics below).
Although there is a full specification chart on the right side of the picture, I will have a pretty relaxed view on how good a picture match is nescessary, mostly because I don´t to throw too much money away. The groupset will almost certainly be Campa CdA, which means I must take another bike apart. But I won't for example try to find a white Turbo Special as they seem to be rather pricey, but if anyone know where I can find a white ordinary Turbo for a decent price, let me know!

I will probably keep the fitted headset, although I can´t identify what make it is, anyone?

Paint scheme is very similar to my Dave Lloyd.
Mine is in Columbus SLX though

This thread made me join LFGSS, really nice work!

Once again, a full 7400 would do the trick

That English is nice
