Thanks! It was a total repaint. I bought paint to match the original color, at first thinking I'd touch up the troubled areas. But as I started prepping those problem areas, I kept finding the rust "spiders" were more pervasive than I first realized. So, the entire frame got stripped, followed by oxalic acid bath, and repainted, plus new decals from Velocals.
The original pinstriping was a bit sloppy in places (note the point of the top head lug).
