I have today just finished painting my Orange clockwork orange fade all done with aerosols I personally think it's passable but feel free to slag it off if you like ,I can take it .
I got the frame shot blasted to get rid of any rust then went from there.
The bike it's self cost me £5 which was a bargain.

I like the original in the first pic, before you repainted it and built it up :)

Great stuff, I hope you’re feeling proud already, it’s great when you rescue an old bike and to get that for a fiver!!!
 
Re:

What a transformation!

Hope you found a better crankset to go back on it!

Extra kudos from me, its far easier to hand it to a pro then have a go yourself.

New decals will set it off, hopefully you can find some repro originals at a reasonable price.

They could even be done waterslide on a home printer then lacquer the lot to stay with the budget theme.
 
Decals Are on
