This looks much earlier than the date they're giving, maybe a 56? There seems to be a license number stamped on the seat tube that the seller might be thinking is the serial number. Great looking ride and that cool Bendix 2 speed!

I love that blue color. You take your chances with clear coating. Sometimes the rust will keep going and actually spread under the clear, especially if the bike isn't thoroughly cleaned and loose rust removed. I don't see any real benefit to clear coating painted parts. I can see guys using clear on bare metal projects and applications, but then you can just strip it right off if something goes wrong. You don't have that luxury with painted parts, and you really take a gamble that the rust won't return under the clear. Even so, it's a great color on this bike.
