I recently had this Cannondale m700 given to me.I think its the 1997 model as that was the obnly year it was made in that colour.Im still undecided weather to polish it or to get it powder coated .

well having not done this kind of thing before i started sanding then decided i was probably doing it wrong some how.anyway its booked in for a powder coating next week. i was going to polish it like kaiser said but then i decided it'd look good in colour but i havent decided which yet maybe white or red i dont know any ideas on what looks good?
thanks

That headtube looks small to me (i.e. not 1 1/4") whats the serial number?

Look inside the rear chainstay or seatstay and theres a number punched into the frame. it'll look like this:

5 18 0193 4373

This translates to (in my example)
5=135mm droputs
18=size
0193=date made (so January 1993 in this case)
4373=batch number
 
5 22 0392 5557
is that 1992 then?
and this might sound stupid but wheres the headtube and drop outs :?

Yes, a 1992 M700...the colour (was) Black with blue/pearl Hyper-Highlight....something your powdercoater will struggle to replicate. That's a massive frame, how tall are you?
