The frame has been chromated completely before it was painted in faded candy blue. It looks amazing with some paint spots chipped of, enabling the chrome to shine through. I clear-coated and polished it in order to preserve its track battled history. "LEVEL framesets are built by Mr. Shiko Matsuda.

"Level" the saddle.
I think I remember this on NJS Export. Great paint (see my Makino). Enjoy it!
