That's a fantastic job I also have a dave Russell built from 653 which I have painted in near enough the same shade of red as yours we obviously have the same good taste lol. I'm at the stage of acquiring my parts but I haven't made my mind up what yet. I will put up some pics as I go.

Look forward to seeing it :D
 
this Dave Russell frame and forks is now for sale...

It needs a bit of brass filler in the RH chain stay due to the appearance of a couple of minute pin prick holes appearing through the paint.

I'll be at the Reg Harris cycle jumble at manchester velodrome on saturday 27th August with a stall if anyone is interested.....

looking for 100 pounds
 
hi,
from memory the frame and forks are 55cc x 55cc but i'd have to measure to make sure.
The holes are actually in the tubing - i took the frame to C&G finishers in Liverpool (who restore many frames and also paint the new Hetchins) - they said that they could be filled with brass although they would need to sandblast/strip the paint - therefore once done it would need a respray.
