Wow, you really got some good results with the fork! I would have to keep going with it. It's kind of like "bicycle archaeology".

Thats what I was thinking too, kind of like moving dirt to find the writing on a stone or something. Looks like everyone agrees that the original paint should be uncovered so I will resume work on the fork and post some pics of it soon.
 
Left leg is pretty much finished. Its a dull black but at least its original. Kinda happy its dull as smugs and finger prints won’t be super noticable

Started cleaning up the frame today. I think this bike will clean up pretty decently! Theres the normal chips in the paint and spots where primer shows but theres no bare spots where there no paint at all which was a welcome surprise. Might not look like much in the pics but was able to fully recover left side of the seat tube stencil, alittle bit on the right but didn’t work on that side much today. Henderson decal is still there along with the seat tube decal but that ones pretty much gone. Also lightly polished the badge

Another great save in the process! Can't wait to see this done. V/r Shawn
 
Little bit of progress today, ran out of steel wool so was only able to finish a small part of the middle tube, do most of the top of the top tube and recover more of the seat post stencil. Also finished the right side of the fork, now just need to do the insides of the leg, truss arms, and bottom of the fork. My dad also repaired the missing cable guide on the lever, not perfect but pretty good. Will rust the new metal and match it to the rest of the lever tonight and tomorrow.
