I've finally finished* a restoration for a friend I've been working on for the last six weeks.
*it still awaits a nicer saddle (Brooks B57 preferably) and a 13" white pump, but I'm out of buget now.
The entire restoration cost approx. £210 in parts, including a rare find square taper Thompson bottom bracket shipped all the way from the US.
Anyhow, this is what you can make for as little as two hundred quid and own labor in building it. Hope the guy I've built it for likes it as much as I do... it's a real head turner when you ride round town.
