In the middle of slowly building this one up.
Always loved the delicate looks of a JMC back in the 80's & being a fan of early 80's looptails I couldnt resist getting one when the opportunity arose.

My wife just came in to me and said, “I don’t know if I am coming or going.” I said to her, “Judging by the look on your face, you’re going – ‘cos when you’re coming, you look like a franking Down Syndrome kid trying to whistle!”

Re: 1983 JMC 3.1 XL
Considering putting this one out there to sell...with the Campy/Araya wheels or a set of Son-Lite Racing/Araya ones....not sure if there is any interest?
I might be wrong on the year, could be 81 or 82?
