This is actually the second respray. I'm afraid I wasn't as caring for the Ron as a teenager, so I've had two Cinelli stems seizing into rusty head tubes. Oops.
Original paint scheme (1987, mad blue/white '80s fadez) and build (tubs and lots of nice but mixed bits from my brother's Roberts):
A rare action shot, at the Junior Milk Race, Romford, 1988:
I didn't take many photos in its mid-life guise, in fact this one I took to enquire on this forum whether it would be worth selling, shortly before deciding to keep it and treat it to a revamp. (Phew!!)
Bumping into Ron (RIP) when I took it in to Colour Tech for the respray:

I noticed my Corsa G+ 23's were wider than the Panaracer 23's they replaced too. Clearances look good, but frame condition looks even better. Do you have any photos before the respray?
