No no don't worry i won't.

I'll do as much de rusting with vinegar as i can and don't know wether i do touchups on the worst spots or keep it clean and top it of with clear paint/ nail polish.

My goal is to bring it back to it's former glory parts wise that is.

I assume this bike was equipped with simplex wich is ok by me.

Used, abused and bruised is what i call these kinda bike with loads of rusty spots

I'm still puzzled though what kind of hubs i should use.

I really like the big normandy hubs but i don't know if these could be used for the build year of the bike as i thought these hubs where from the 70's and this bike is a 60's model
