Current Projects chat and miscellany

Just won this. Going for a classic look seeing as it has nice lugwork - any ideas where to get it painted? Asides from the Dovvles super-service, of course, I've heard there is a really, really long queue... and although armourtex are on my road, I think i want a nice contrasting lugs type job so powdercoat is prob out too

It's having silver dp18s on Miche hubs, and, er, that's all that's decided. Ideas on a postcard please...?

i used to work in the shop that is shown on that frame. will probably have belonged to a member of the ratae road club that the shop sponsored back then. can see if i can find more out for you if you'd like.
