80's fuji del rey
i have an 80's fuji del rey that i am thinking about painting. would that be really stupid? it has the old gold fuji sticker on it but i peeled off the clear protector sticker and the sticker is all dirty. it's getting all scratched up because i ride it all the time and it stays in my dorm room against my room mate's closet door and he's a bastard. i don't know if there's fuji enthusiasts who would pay ridiculous amounts of money for the bike as it is...i saw the same bike on craigslist in seattle for over $300. i was kind of thinking maybe that guy was just an *******.
i want to paint it because it's my only bike, i don't really like the color, and i don't have money for a new bike. and the frame is as light as i think a bike would ever need to be. it's 1769 steel.
this picture is from the craigslist ad when i bought it, it's more scratched now and a fixed gear.
what do you think?
thanks a lot.
