Dawes Windrush

Old School Hero
Can anyone tell me anything about the Dawes Windrush please.

I have seen a black one in mint condition with the gear levers on the top tube and I believe it was a 10 speed with a Williams crank and some really nice bars and rubber covered levers. It had a wee rack on the back to support the Carradice saddle bag. Gold decals and lug lining. Looked like comfy and useful bike. It had light weight mat plastic mudguards. the rear one had a filigree alloy cut out attached. It was a very attractive bike.

Never seen one before.
 
i just bought a Dawes Windrush for 140£ it looks very original according to the description i have gathered over the internet. Did not realise its a Reynolds 531.
