Lovely rat

Hello there,
Just finished a bike for my girlfriend . An old one 1920-30 Lovely Cycles , Paris.
I first saw it on ebay. Rusty ?

Not so rusty. And a lot of pinstripping

So I started to erase the paint of strategical pieces from the frame (don't know the name in english :? )

And I put a second chainguard , more fenders and several ancient pieces.

Almost finished :wink:

At the risk of being terribly punny, that's just lovely! :mrgreen: :roll:

Seriously great looking machine, and the headbadge is the coolest! Awesome work, I really like the how you sanded the lugs (I think that's the 'term' you were looking for :wink: ) and added other bright metal parts. Magnifique!
