Hey all, new here, I have recently purchased a 77 Road Racer with looking to restore. Will post pictures once I get to my 10 post limit.
All parts look to be original bar the levers and wheels, love the mad SR Royal drilled out chain rings, already managed to source replacement 600 levers!

Has anyone had any luck trying to match the old style paints? It has such a subtle pearl finish to the paint that its hard to search/source. I assume going to a car painting specialist is my best bet and maybe mix with a transparent pearl paint.
Was going to deal the large chip by sanding back, treating with a rust converter, painting and then wet sand/waxing.
Chrome seems alright, just flaking on the inside of one of the forks, can anyone recommend how to prevent further chipping?

Sorry if this isn't the right place to ask the restoration question, the issues with resources online is they vary so much and I am extremely new to bike restoration and would assume that people have had similar experiences with their own Koga-Miyata's
