As usual great work!
It almost looks like new.

You have certainly got it looking great so far Mike.
Keep up the hard work
Looking forward to seeing it finished.

Thank you for the comments chaps, this build is still far from finished yet, the simple yellow enamel frame really does look stunning in my view. More soon.

Added some bar tape today, green makes a nice change...

Old period Carradice for carrying things...

New fork decals...

Re:

Another day and a few more bits added. Toe clips and other bits now adorn the bike. Looking forward to its first ride/test.

I still have to do something about this, been trying to tie down the actual font.

Managed to find one more S bolt insert...

Re:

Just about done here now, just a Tru-Wel decal to sort and possibly the top tube script...

Tested the bike on Sunday and it works fine, those extra long gear lever take some getting used to...

Upgraded the tyres and fitted a bigger block on the rear. Thinking of using this at Eroica this year...
