No don't worry i'm not going to sell her, i've had it for over a year now so it's stuck with me!
I have decided to source original late 50's parts and restore her to her former glory... i have been trying to make inroads into finding out what colour she was originally but think I will just go with what I like, the allin order book/frame log is still in existance, hopefully it will also explain what or who it was built for... it certainly isn't a path racer as have found photos of one made around the same time as this... would be lovely to find out it was commisioned by a pro-racer of the time :)
So, colours chosen (I think) are grey and white (head tube in white and seat tube with white band/s) with either dark grey or gold lug lining..... i've got until saturday to decide as thats when it gets dropped off.
I'm not sure what transfers to go for thiugh, these are from a 1950's path racer -
and these are from a 1954 stan butler special -
Decisions decisions....
