Bought this bike because my wife has a 1983 Trek 400 already and I wanted to have a "matching" set of vintage Treks. The last photo shows the bike in its near original (and excellent) condition. I purchased it from the original owner who also gave me the original 1983 Trek catalog, Owner's Manual and sales receipt! It's hard to believe this bike is 42 years old!

More Info:
Final phase of my build (?). But, I will likely try to find a decent late 80s or early 90s Shimano wheelset so I won't be stuck with the Maillard freewheel forever.
