Looks like it's been chained to the anchor at the end of the pier for the last 10 years
Where's that 10mm socket got to?

I think we all feel sorry to see a bike in that state. However there are many "rose tinted types" otherwise, who actually anticipate restoring them. All possible in theory, by buying loads of bits ( complete bikes worth!). However those without said eye wear know the cost.......
One day I'll have the time to restore it, not just talk and dream....

Wouldn't have touched that, it's an import.
