Forks are being sold separately

Just spoke with seller about the steerer tube diameter and they replied with this message saying they've found a crack in the frame so now parting it out. I think they've been bombarded with messages like mine and thought hold on people are only interested in these forks they must be worth...

Good project and from experience it should come up well with a thorough clean up,the spokes look toast though. Even though the seatpost isn't moving at least it's pretty much all the way up so not alot of post to free up and get out. Check to see if the stem is stuck aswell.

New Dia Compe brake cable day with the must have gold lettering 😁

I'm humming and harring with the XT crank arms,i'm tempted to go back to the original Sugino crank arms,or a set which have just popped into my head that i've had lying around for donkeys 🤔😁 I'm with you on the 16 spoke wheels the bike suddenly lost the wow factor when i put the black tyres on...
