anyone know what I am looking at here? I don't know of a all chrome trek road frame? My (brief) search didn't turn anything up

Don't know about chrome Treks, but don't ride it until you make sure the rear QR functions correctly.

judging by the investment cast lugs and lack of eyelets, I'm guessing it's a 5xx or 6xx level racing frame with aftermarket chrome from the late 80's, great bikes. It's pretty freaking cool and while the rust speckles give me some hesitation, I'd be very interested if it were local.
