T-Mar,
About a month or so ago, I saw an '89 Ironman Expert either in this thread or somewhere in C&V, blue to white fade, massively and nicely redone. I don't remember the components, but it had deep dish rims, blue bar tape, was photo'd by a tree. I've not been able to relocate the pic. Could you look and see if that's in your database? I'm rehab'ing a similar one, and could use some guidance, if not from the owner, then the picture, at least. Thanks.
