Here's my 1971 TdF in a photo from about 1980.
Thanks, yours is a beaut, too!
Heres some older pictures taken right after I put it back together.
The bar tape is actually from a bolt of fabric store 1" white cotton twill tape that I dyed Navy Blue with Rit, then applied coats of shellac. It has held up really well. The bars are still a little wet in the picture.
I never put the head badge on it because it originally had a silver foil covering over the entire head tube and I was going to duplicate it. But I never got to it, still have the decal
I had a local motorcycle custom painter do the spray and the detail pinstripe. He did a pretty good job.
You all have such beautiful bikes!
