I have a green Raleigh Sprite 3 speed I spent far too much time on with some cutting wax bringing the paint up to a high gloss luster & far too much effort with 4-ought steel wool & wax on all the shiny bits. Squirted in some Phil's oil to bring the Sturmey-Archer back to life. Then some good condition used tires were installed from the imperial tires pile.

I put a work stoppage order when it came to the headset & bottom bracket rebuild (old grease has turned waxy) due to sunk labor costs & labeled it $125 as-is...In 8 months, not a soul has even bothered to look at it.
