Mangusta 3000 road bike 1982

Found this on ebay and couldn't resist. I know nothing about the mangusta or can't really find any info on manufacturing. It went rather cheap due to its small size and tall owner. This is my first geared bike in 6 years. I like to ride this when I need a break from riding fixed so I didn't want to indulge in anything too crazy. Better pictures soon.

49cm aluminum frame

Fork/Headset:
Stock.

Derailleurs/Shifters:
Suntour

Handlebars/Stem:
Cinelli 80mm/Cinelli giro d-italia road bars 40cm

Saddle/Seatpost:
Knock off Cinelli saddle.

Brakes:
Dia comp

Front Wheel/Hub/Tire:
Matrix wheel set to Campy C record hubs

I agree. Everything on this bike was super well maintained for its age. I pulled it out of the box...threw it together and nothing needed adjusting and still doesn't. The old stuff either just works or its broken.
