It finally arrived and the revival begins.
Sending the fork out today to be straightened.
Working on getting replacement fenders.
But, started a little bit of cleaning.
Turns out the bike was/is maroon with white and black pinstripping.
Lots of years of faded and penetrated patina.
Not sure I'll get the color popping or even resurface again.
But, I'll attempt a crack at it.

That paint's the least of my worries on this revival.
I had the rear steer handlebar stem stuck and thought my talents using a deadblow could get it out with a few whacks, well I egged the daggum sleeve.
Must have gotten the stem angled some how.
Hurrying can be detrimental. Not like I can go find another replacement. Pisses me off.
