I've just bought a few litres of white venegar so we'll see how that brings the frame up. I'll do a test first. There is hardly any paint showing, but what is there looks not unlike Bianchi celeste. As much as I like to preserve any original finish, it would look lovely restored ... That would definitely prolong the restoration though!
Oh, and also if you manage to measure the spokes I have some 15/17 gauge ones that are fairly patinated going spare should they happen to match for length. Prob. a long shot that they will match but let me know and we can only hope....
