List,

First off thank you everyone who has helped with this bike, whether you knew it or not. This was my first restoration and very rewarding. I started this project in September and finished a few days ago. When I started this project I was going for period specific parts. Since then it has evolved along with my style. Overall, it is mostly around the early 60's era with some exceptions. I am sure you will pick them out and maybe laugh. The finish is supposed to mirror the Radiant copper offered during the time period. It is an "radiant orange" with a gold perl overlay. There are still a couple of things I am going to change but for right now it is great. I am building a set of clincher wheels and I want to perfect the stem/handlebar combo. You can see a gallery at: http://gallery.me.com/jordanlorenz#100018. There are before pictures, after pictures and some extra info on the bike. I would like to give a special thanks to my friend Dale here in Tucson who did the lining around the lugs, it was the first time, he did a great job!

BTY: I have 2 cinelli #14 bars, one in great shape and another in okay shape if anyone is interested. Contact off list.

thanks all
