Molteni Merckx Restoration Sunday November 06/2011

No pictures today as all i did for three hours is sand down the frame and fork. I used 180 grit, a steel wheel on a dremel and a wire brush. I got almost all of the original paint off the frame, and really all that is left is the little bit that is caught between the frame and the lugs, which I will attack later.

I am deciding if I should paint the whole frame or leave some chrome on the fork and rear triangle. Merckx's bike was fully painted.
