1983 Univega Super Strada
The picture I had disappeared but it looked in nice shape. Color is brown and the bike has all dura ace components.
I'm waiting on the owner to measure it to see if it fits me. H'es asking $225 for it

A bit of evaporust and the rust on the parts will come right out. That is a good looking bike and for $190, you did very well.

I'd correct the bar tape and cable routing per Sheldon. So, the rear cable should route out of the bottom of the bar (with tight bar tape around it), move in front of the front cable, around the nds side of the head tube and onto the top tube. Right now, it simply doesn't look long enough.
but they cut the cable the right length. The picture of the bike in the catalog it is routed the way I did it and it is tight there also. Thats what I went by https://univegacatalogs.files.wordpr...ga-catalog.pdf
