    Cut down the head tube with a hacksaw & put on the stem, bars, grips & brake.

    I hate the fact that when you clear coat a bare metal frame even if it's flat, satin or gloss clear that it always takes away the shine. I may leave it cleared or have it powder coated chrome or maybe even just spray paint it baby blue. Not sure yet.

    Yeah it’s insanely hot out now. I got this frame from a friend only 5 minutes away.

    Completely sanded to bare metal and went over it with a wire brush wheel to make it shine a little. I think I’ll clear coat it gloss.

    Lot of sanding done and lots more to go. Been using a palm sander with 80 grit and a wire brush wheel. Might leave it bare metal.
