Hope you find a goldilocks fit with your new one.
Tx, it was very cool. The big later one is the right size but has not the cool early paint, sticker HB a bit less flourish and a decidedly different vibe to it but was a smokin deal. Literally got home from getting that one and found the one on the way. It was also a good deal so I broke my current "no too small frames" rule, can make it work and will.

Dave is a treasure and consummate builder in every sense IMO, hopefully I find an early one my size someday, I will probably pay dearly if need be.
