3Rensho Frame for Sale (Campy front disc)

So I am selling this bike. It is a 3Rensho Pursuit Bike (funny bike). It has a 700c rear wheel and a 600c front wheel. It will come with a rather flimsy rear HED track disc wheel (tubular). It will also come with a 600c Campagnolo Ghibli front disc wheel (tubular). The front disc will come with a Continental Olympic track tire on its last legs but that still holds air. Finally it comes with a Shimano hub spoked front wheel (600c).

The bike is fairly rare. The bike was built Yoshi Konno (who was paralyzed in an accident and stopped making frames a number of years ago):

I haven't seen many of the funny bikes go up for sale, but the regular track bikes in pristine condition go for around $2000. This one is far from pristine as you can see from the photos, but is in complete working order and ready to be built into one cool project bike.

I am going to start this one off at $1800. That is for all 3 wheels and the frame, fork, and headset.

I may be under-selling this thing, because I know this tension disc from Campagnolo is super rare. I have never seen a 600c before and I know that the 650c versions sell for close to $1000 as collector items. Either way - let me know if you are interested. Or let me know what you think.

Forgot to Post the size

The seat tube is 57 cm

And the top tube is 60 cm, but that is because it is so steeply sloped. The bike will ride like a 57 cm.
