In Yorkshire they would call this mutton dressed up as lamb. So it's a rescued 2001 Bianchi Pista made to look vintage with no regard to authenticity. In other words the more decals the better. Everyone seems to go mental over the crankset. And in car-collector parlance it's known as a trailer queen.
