Or....the

cb400bill posted is pretty sweet looking. I like the subtle gold color, chromed lugs, polished alloy components, top tube cable guides and the absence of gaudy lettering. Maybe it's the lack of style that makes it visually pleasing.
The only thing that seems out of place for me is the bar tape, I'd go with brown to match the saddle.
