Thanks for the compliments...I know, that I had luck, to be at the right time on the right place. When I saw the car the first time in my garage, where I use to bring my cars for service and repairs, it was like love at first sight.
The magnesium campy wheels are rare or expensive. I got an unused set but you can see the age, even if they are unused and renovated. I will try next year to get this small holes out with a second renovation.
I was polishing the car with a car painter together...It took a while until he was able to see and say it's the second color...
If you didn't buy that car, you would have indeed been CRAZY! I have been out of town and just wishing to get back to computer to look at it again. enjoy!
the real campagnolo wheels are always like that. The HB copies are much smoother. Be careful that you DO NOT try to have them shotblasted and powder coated. If you do want them different, ie smoother, hand sand them, and have them sprayed.
They are indeed very valuable, and if the coarseness bothers you I will trade them for a NEW set of HB copies...
Your are all highlighting, that I did the right decision.wow...
Seinista: Thanks for your information...I will let the wheels at the moment, how they are...And may when a tire change is necessary, I will try with to carfully hand sand them.
