After stripping the decals, some washing, some waxing, some polishing, and some minor (trivial) adjustments. This is how Iñaki saw it when he came in. Note new bottle cage--a little extra pimpage.
Separated at birth? The, um, thrifty, "Soleus"-brand derailleur's script reminded me of something I'd seen before. I rummaged in my parts box and found the Simplex derailleur that had come on Franco's Follis. Maybe I'm cockeyed but I think there's a resemblance.
