I will need to know its age and model before I can even think about restoring it, because, what I haven't told you all is that it's previous two owners (at least) were not very kind to it, with the first of the two covering it in black paint and the second guy I bought it from getting it all removed in a failed attempt to restore it himself.
The wheels also rusted away after it was left sitting in water (although the hubs are still with it), so I need to find a pair of period wheels which will fit the hubs, and also, because it doesn't have it's original paintwork, I have decided that I might as well get it all restored fully to original, as new condition (there is nothing original left too lose which isn't already lost).
The forks and handlebars appear to be nickel plated too, so a nice finish could be achieved with them also!
