I revived a Miyata Sports Model for a friend...goal was to go as cheap as possible...only parts I had laying around plus the standard bike flip consumables.

Didn't get a pic before I started taking it apart but here it is relatively intact:

Here are a few parts that went into the OA bath (brakes were pretty rusty on the opposite side):


I replaced the housings and cables, repacked all of the bearings, replaced the steel bars with with some alloy randonneur bars and both steel wheels with alloy. Swapped out the 5spd freewheel for a shimano hyperglide (I think) 6spd freewheel. Also put on a newer old seatpost as the other one had flaking chrome and was rusted to hell:




Pictures don't shine as much as they should as it was a nasty overcast day but the chrome is blingy and the paint polished up quite nicely. Alloy parts saved some weight and braking is quite solid now.
