No, looks like respray and lacquer rather than the original gel coat. Incorrect logos/placement.
Brake and gear change levers appear to be rechromed with polished finish. No brass nuts on exhaust roses.
Seat rivets incorrect / missing.
Damn, so I am a rivet counter...

The last one in the US sold at auction for $40 000.
It is a down market, twice that price in the US surprised nobody ten years ago.
The chain is very slack.

Made ya look!The ones I've seen are 50% down on what they were .
There's one up for sale at Bonhams in October.
Estimate seems ridiculously high to me but it's an auction estimate.

Well, if you’re working on commission you’re bound to try and talk the price up rather than down, aren’t you? 
Of course, but if you follow auctions, you realise that the estimates, certainly nowadays, are disconnected from reality, at least for certain machines.Well, if you’re working on commission you’re bound to try and talk the price up rather than down, aren’t you?

There was an Electronica on the floor of the Oz distributor brand new out of the crate with cast wheels.
Not sure why that is peculiar…..? I know there were low numbers of cast wheels eletronnicas, were they not destined for Australia?
our Electronica has cast wheels but I know it should not have
scored a set of SFC Magnesium hub disc brake wheels a few years ago which are correct for the bike
I have one customer bike left to build and then that is it for complete customer builds, time to start on our own bikes

So ... did Elettronicas come with either cast or spoked wheels? Depending on build date?

Personally I think they look better with spokes

Basically that’s what it was, and a few more in 1977. With the advent of the 3CL and the SF3 it was logical to put those wheels in the SFC too.
