I think this counts. A literal barn find purchased from Mike Fraysse. The frame had years of barn crud on it. I spent hours starting with 2000 grit wet sanding, then rubbing compound, then a clear coat polish. Some of the paint failed, but for the most part it came back to life. Wheels are from another life but are correct for the bike. Originals were large flange Campag laced to Super Champion Gentleman rims. Of course the pedals are not original.
