F.Moser Pro Comp Ax - build ideas

Hello,

I bought this F.Moser fillet brazed mtb frame on a whim ;) . I am now wondering what to do with the paint. The frame is rusty in places but structurally sound. The paint would be next to impossible to replicate, and I don't like it that much TBH, but seems a shame to repaint it. What's your opinion on that matter? The built will not be period correct anyway as I have no inclination to build museum piece, just a nice bike to ride.
BTW, do you have any info on Moser mtb frames? Any idea what year it could be?

Some pics taken by the seller:

Thanks,

Very cool, good whim.

It would be fairly straightforward to take some good pictures of the down tube and top tube decals and have some full-wrap decals made up as frame panels with the 'Moser' lettering over, then you can just get it repainted white.
 
Nice! :cool:

If it's not going 'period correct' then just get some nice tough paint on it before it deteriorates any more. Remember to give it a good waxoil in all the tubes before building! :)

Thanks,

Good to know I'll not be condemned for not keeping it oryginal. I'll try to replicate the decals and the very cool chart showing lateral and vertical flexibility.
