@Salamandrine, thank you for reviving the thread. I've been busy. I'm back in college, and we had to treat our home for bedbugs, and my daughter got married yesterday!

Reposted from my thread in which I resurrected it after a cracked frame, I give you the sesquilaminate Rustoleum Joe Bell Pollack Mercedes-Benz Claud Butler Wanderer Commuter Special! Sometimes I just call it the War Horse, for its steady performance. It's been hit by cars twice, frame cracked once, repainted numerous times, and still carries me reliably into battle (work). One day I will retape the bars. Last time I did it was ten years ago, and the tape is still three quarters there...

I will build this into a bike one day. Whether that will be in this color remains to be seen. If I could find the correct foil decals for a Dawes (it is a Mirage), I would repaint it in the original silver.
