Question about vintage Ross Professional Gran Tour
Good afternoon
Hoping someone can answer a question for me. We have a late 1970’s Ross Professional Gran Tour bike and want to know if it is worth finding a buyer that knows vintage bikes or should we just sell it to get rid of it? It is structurally in great shape, but has cosmetic scratches and some rashy rust. There is no rust at any joints or weld spots .
Many thanks for any suggestions !

If it has Shimano 600 components on it that is a big plus. They will generate interest some in the bike. It is otherwise a nice, average, somewhat entry-level road bike. Think Chevrolet versus Ferrari.

Thank you for your quick reply!!!
The brakes are Shimano 610, the gear shifting mechanism is a Shimano Titlist (I don’t see a series number). The bike model number appears to be 2323-694 if that helps.
