Ta, it's had a once over with a light rub of linseed oil to hold the rust at bay for now.
So close now, took it to the LBS after work and had the BB chased and faced. BB/cranks/chain all installed now. Only had the indexing left to do and while fitting the cable I got the end block stuck in the shifter, completely jammed it. Set about disassembling the shifter, terrible idea. Springs and tiny washers everywhere, cable still jammed, job's fucked and I'm kicking myself. So now I need another Sora R3000 right hand shifter, I've put a wanted add on here and Singletrack, but if anyone reading this has one or a pair lying around I'll happily take them.
Once I've got a new shifter it'll be ready to roll, hoping for a ride this weekend!

Well nice this. Give it a wipe with an oily rag or it might start rusting sooner than you think!
