Exactly!

Even this frame is salvageable if you're willing to replace enough tubes.



Of course, it debatable whether that's a worthwhile project to undertake for a Reynolds 753 Eddy Merckx. For a Murray All Pro...well, it could be fun.

It reminds me of a recipe for Kauai Wild Chicken Stew that [MENTION=381793]gugie[/MENTION] shared with me: "Put the chicken in a pot of boiling water with spices and lava rocks. Simmer for several hours. Discard the chicken. Eat the rocks." Restoring this bike would be a bit like that.
