Hi Markob

 

Please post some close up pictures of the lugs and the paintwork done around them once the tape comes off.

Will do, coming home on Monday, thought it better to let the clear coat dry over the weekend otherwise I would have been tempted to start building already.

Full Nervex lug set, have all been chromed along with rear stays and front fork. Campag 1010 rear dropouts, complete Zeus2000 front fork & front dropouts. Estimated date at late '50s early '60s, no braze on bits at all. I added the threads for a bottle cage during the refurbish. Fitting complete vintage Campag parts, Rigida rims with tubies.

So is my wife, the chores at home have been on the back burner for the last year, it is much more fruitful to buff and polish parts rather than paint the fence/clean the pool etc

Yes, that sounds very familiar
