I know the 'correct' thing to do is paint the frame Holdsworth team orange, and maybe I will end up doing that, but.... From what I can gather, when the Holdsworth Professional was sold as frame-set the buyer could choose a color. In stripping the frame, I've found a couple small spots of a really nice light-blue/aqua underneath the repaint (and what looks to be automotive, 'rust-colored' primer). While the repaint wasn't great, it does seem like the stripping and prep was pretty good- but I wonder why there are these few traces of blue under it all... If I didn't go with orange, I
was thinking of a reverse color scheme of kingfisher(ish) blue with orange panels, but now I'm adding matching the blue in these leftover traces as a possible option. It doesn't reproduce particularly well in an iPhone photo taken in the basement.......
