I have been in Italy for a week and just arrived home but want to share with you all my new purchase...1985 Wilier Triestina...here's a link to a few photo's.

The bike is still in Italy and I will be picking it up later in the year, when I return by car.
My brother has a similar model known as Gioiello Ramato, Copper Jewel, which he rode L'Eroica on with my VA Sport, but we have never seen a 'green' version, the story goes that for every so many Copper frames built, a green one was made. Not sure of this as I have not managed to find any info to back it up.
The Wilier is fully pantographed, is fitted with Campagnolo components except front wheel hub, brake levers & not sure if rims are original.
