WTB: Merckx 7-Eleven 56-57cm
Not a novel ask, but have decided my Dura Ace 7410 build kit deserves something nice. Anyone got a frame (or a whole bike, I suppose) they're wanting/willing to move?
While I'm asking, I'd definitely prefer chrome fork & stays.

I've got a real deal 7-Eleven jersey that is begging for a frame in the same size range. One of my dreams.....sigh. Should you score a frame for yourself, get back to me about my jersey. Letting go of it may reduce some stress in my life! By the way, thanks for the Campy Record 102 bottom bracket I purchased from you on eBay....it helped.

There's a guy on the Facebook steel is real group who sells a lot of these, repainted. I bought one recently -- still waiting for shipping from the Netherlands. I think if you contact him and tell him what you're looking for he'll be able to hook you up sooner or later.

I'd be very tempted to find a frame that fits me, with the fork I want, in the tubing I want, and then send it to Jack Trumbull at Franklin Frames for a respray/re-chrome.
Not cheap, but you'd get exactly what you want.
