Beautiful bike. Chroming was much more popular in the '70s and '80s but due to ti being rather toxic it fell out of favor.

I wouldn't get too hung up on the exact model since you bought it as a frame only and built it up. I am not sure but '85 might be a tad early for SLX.

The value is going to be up to a potential buyer. Someone who just wants a good quality chrome Italian bike to ride might pay several hundred dollars for it but I don't think you'll see values like a DeRosa or Colnago might see.
