Probably won't get to finish the build until Friday but here's a full photo. It replaces the black Dave Russell so most of the parts are just swapped over. The original wheels and seat are gone so the ones shown are temps until I decide what's next. Thanks to ArmourTex for a 48 hour powdercoat - RAL 2003 - orange metal flake. Stratton Cycles in Wandsworth supplied original adhesive decals. They also shared some interesting Claude Butler stories and revealed this frame was built by Chas Roberts. Experimenting with the final look. Black lug lining is dry erase marker and wipes off, and the first decal applied was crooked so it was moved to the seat tube. Not sure if either detail will stay. One more photo to come when complete.
