This weekend around riding, will put some elbow grease into all these parts and get the bike back together again.
You're welcome. Now that the crank puller has been used twice, maybe I can call it 'vintage". Looking forward to seeing the results. The frame looks to be in excellent condition, much better than what I usually start with.
