I've recently acquired what might be an old Bianchi road bike frame.
The previous owner bought the frame after it had been resprayed and so everything looks very pristine with new decals. The chrome front fork doesn't appear original to me and the decals are perhaps positioned in the wrong place? I am wondering about the authenticity and which model the frame is. I had a bit of a look online and it looks like it might be one of the Campione d'italia models from the 80s?
I am no expert and that is why I am posting on here. I'm guessing it could also be another frame in disguise. Any Bianchi collectors / experts out there? Thank you in advance, any help would be appreciated!
Frame number, located on bottom bracket: TC21000438
There is another identifier on BB: 1919
