So after a few days… And I mean ‘long days’ sanding, stripping, wire brushing.. And more sanding… Every scrap of paint, every blob of rust was removed, every dint or bump smoothed out or filled in, the frame was taken back to shiny bare steel once more… Naked as the day it was born…
4 good coats of primer applied, ready for a final sanding tomorrow before starting to put some top coats on.. 😃
Added note, I’m having some replacement decals made, identical to the originals, but in brown to suit the new colour scheme.. Got the email today saying that they’ve been shipped… From Australia.. Hope they don’t take too long..
Also the bottom brackets have left the factory in China. Fingers crossed..
Nearly there… 
All primed…
