Bridgestone 700

I have been lurking and waiting. I just came across a Bridgestone 700.

I have seen mixed reviews, so I could use some input.

This is the best pic I have. The wheels are mismatched. And the joints at the head tube look as if the paint is peeling (?).

I just looked more closely. And I do not think it is worth the effort or cost.

Paint peeling in that location is usually a sign of crash damage. That might also explain the mismatched wheels.

It’s gonna need some work but the price is about right if it fits and something you plan to keep. I’d buy it if I still lived In Houston.

I wouldn’t conclude there is any damage from these pics. Merits an an in-person inspection.
