Found something special.. Eddy Merckx "aerodynamica" pista frameset in a different jacket. Sometimes u see an advert of a bike and it gets your direct attention. This was the case with this "van Rossem" trackbike... i saw a small pantograph on the seatstay and reckonized the EM pantograph on the seatstay. Without any hesitation i went to pick up the bike and was happy to see my gut feeling was right..... This is how i found her with a mix of parts. Gonna restore her in the near future. 56x56

Sorry - it's impossible; what numbers do you think the frames built in 1984 had? there is a Z847 frame sold on November 23, 1984 (ie produced at the latest on October 1984) - the difference in numbering between your frame and Z847 is ~ 1100 and just enough frames to build EMC in 10 months ... In 1980, employing 3 times fewer employees, EMC built ~ 1000 bicycles in 9 months ... bicycles, not frames.
