IMHO I don't think it's a particularly nice respray that.

Guys,
I'm glad you all like my frame!
I'll agree that maybe it wasn't the best respray but it was done in 1997 when the "retrobike" concept hadn't been thought of.
If you read my listing I explain that I don't use it much (at all) and haven't done so for 8 years. This is why I'm selling!
Gordon - you obviously don't read/remember very well! I told you "Scant was very kind to let me know that he thought the frames value was 90-130 quid depending on condition - he didn't have photos at the time he made this estimate."
I was new to the retro bike trading thing at the time and so had asked his advice on values. Before you all voiced your opinions I had realised that the frame is not to everyone's liking and may not be worth as much as I thought initially . The auction was started at the minimum I was prepared to take for the frame having watched a few auctions and got a feel for values of frames of the era - £35 quid.
Feel free to bid
Tommy

Reckon it could be a pretty nice restoration for very little cash. Assuming the current decals aren't lacquered over then the frame could be cleaned up and just the centre panels 'rattle-canned' white fade (shouldn't see too much scuffing there, as I know that's not the most durable paint option), pop on the original decal set - job done

As I bet your all sick of hearing, I'm searching for an Orange HT and it could be a cheap way to build a Clockwork. I'd need to get it stripped and resprayed, cos I'm like that, so for me it wouldn't be a too cost effective option. I'm only saying as I see it from the view point of someone who's looking to buy.

Well if anyone does go for it, I've got some original Orange 1" forks that will fit - need respray as well!
