i'm mainly future-forcasting... the frame is in great shape now, cosmetically, for a ~30 year old frame. i'm easy on it and such, but i know for a fact that the longer i wait, the less and less liklihood i have of restoring it fully with decals in tact. they simply do not exist. the finish i'd like recreated as it is or as close to true-to-form as can be, but wouldn't mind one way or another if it was simply repainted one color (keeping of course the chrome rear triangle and front forks) with standard chesini decals. i've just not seen a single set of decals pass through ebay, ever. seems almost more rare than those russian masi decals that went for a serious mint once on there.

i imagine your frame is spraypainted for the mean time, you can and will restore it a bit more no doubt. if whomever does the job happens to do a good one, let us all know! that thing is a destined-to-be museum-piece as well.
