I've given myself a couple of months to obtain and refurbish the missing parts before assembly.
I have the decision on what finish and paint to put on it. I don't want to spend silly money on a £20 frame, fortunately the Record Ace 12 is a very simple job it seems. 1 colour and a few decals...
More information I think, I've been busy.
I can confirm it has Haden Royal Sovereign Lugs (see http://wyganowskiframes.com/sony-dsc-101)
The brakes are still fitted, they are Weinmann 605 side pulls
The forks have SUNTOUR GS ends (just about visible when scrubbed), forged crown of some kind...
This is all useful information! (I only paid £20 for it so I'm not bothered what it turns out to be).
And TBH if it's already been mucked about with then I can do what I like with a clear conscience. That said, if I can identify it's probable original configuration that would be a plus.
Thank...
Recent cheapo internet purchase.
