I've got to add my voice to the haters I'm afraid, you took a rare and beautiful frame and repainted it removing it's history and replacing it with a fake one, stickers and all and that to me is a little bit sad. Yes it's your frame, your money and all that but I think as collectors, users and enthusiasts of vintage frames we have a collective responsibility to keep things as close to how they were designed as possible unless it was beyond repair which this frame wasn't. I would have gladly bought the frame but wasn't in a position to at the time but I wouldn't entertain the idea of buying this frame now. Just a shame that's all and the fact that you won't even ride it because it is the wrong size for you just adds more tragedy IMHO
