This bike was my dads racer and it lay rusting for years in his shed. It was originally a 10 speed with Campagnolo Gran sport components except for the Mafac Top 63 Brakes. I took it from the shed in September 2010, stripped it, re-chromed it and had it resprayed and then fitted replacement decals I made myself from waterslide decal paper. I had the paintwork and the decals clearcoated and finally put all of the parts back together in June 2011. The bike is my "sunny weather" daily commuter and is the first one I have ever restored.
