Will, that 88 Benotto Triathlon came out great looking, like the painted flutes on the seat post.

I wanted to show a before & after picture of a project I did last Christmas & gave to my boss to display in our shop but had lost my photos on a bad drive, after a lot of work I found and recovered them & while not a bicycle it is bicycle related. It's a old HTK ( Tanaka ) wheel truing stand that a dear friend of mine bought new and used many years building wheels in the 70's & 80's before retiring & then giving it to me. I was really happy with the way it turned out and it is still fully functional.
