Best regards Peter.

Peter:
That is an ostentatious, gaudy, seriously fancy collectors item. It may very well sell for $4K+ if properly offered. Posters Mackers and Chombi are correct IMO. Do not change or modify anything short of carefully wiping down with Pledge or a silicon treatment (I like Aerospace 303 protectant.) You will need a detailed and accurate description of components and geometry that a good old school bike shop can help you with. If you cannot find a knowledgeable cycling auction, go eBay and start high. You need to consider an international buyer, as there may be more buyers for that level internationally, so prepare for that...
