I'm sure the Ruby red will look lovely i used to have a Principia sx ltd in a very similar colour but closer to a 3004 and it was one of nicest looking bikes I've ever owned. Colour matched stems i can take or leave. I always like silver on older bikes shiny but not full chrome. Never should have sold that frame.

Thanks for those suggestions...
I’m going to go with a rich red, not too deep, 3003 Ruby
And thanks @moog, missed your reply! All good though.
In another stupid question I will probably answer myself in the end ... are painted matchy steel stems cool or fool? Tandem so I have one mahoosive stoker stem, and one chunky steel mtb quill, both black, I’m not too keen on black parts (though bother the bars will be, meh). I just can’t decide if matchy stems really are that nice.
