New paint job today on my mixte!

I have an old Nishiki mixte that I'm taking in later today for a new powdercoat job. I picked it up for $15 on CL. The frame and fork are in good solid shape. It came with an in-good-shape front crankset, decent handlebars, no rear deraileur and two front wheels. I hate the color and the paint has seen better days. So, we set it up as a single speed and I'm getting it done a dark royal blueish color. What I'm on the fence about it whether I should get decals put back on, so I'm pondering....

I have a B67 on the way, new grips (going to try staining cork grips per a suggestion here), new pedals and plan to put fenders and a small simple rack on the back or front (haven't decided yet.)

I'll post new pics when she's back to me and all put together.
