This thread makes me want to get on and rebuild mine, I picked up a hand painted shabby Gillot a few years ago and had it resprayed in period colours and got the transfers to match, I have tracked down period late fifties parts to build it just not got round to it yet.
How it was at first.
Yes badge is going back on, TA chain set going back on, I have loads of chainrings for that, Mafac brakes, GB bars and levers, original saddle.
Wheels are difficult, ideally 27 1/4 but 700c is much more convenient :)
