Ian really brought this back to life. It's very unfortunate that you can't keep it. It's a work of art. :(

Sadly and happily, yes. I would like to keep it as is but I am afraid of rusting. I used this bike as my commuter so rust will definitely be an issue.

Put frame saver in the frame and let the outside get a light layer of surface rust! It would be so awesome
