Off the peg steel frame (disc)

Morning all
Am wondering about my next bike, want a road bike with discs, but being awkward I fancy Campag. Can't find any decent ready built ones at a decent price, and as I'm a chunky monkey I figure that weight isn't such an issue, so wondered about a steelie? I have an old 531 from the '80s which is a joy to ride, but as rigid as string!
So was wondering about an off the peg steel frame, probably around the £1k mark. Any recommendations?

It's just a hill. Get over it.

Fairlight Strael is £1,200 for the frame but would fit your specs and reviews well.
Also worth looking into is Racer Rosa, annoyingly they don't have prices on their site but their aluminium frames are under a grand. As they're Italian made they I'm sure they could make it Italian threaded for your Campag groupset:

Really pushing your budget but the Mason Revolution in Columbs steel looks sweet.
