I've broken her down to a jumble of dirty parts.. I decided the paint job is toooo far gone to salvage it, so I began to strip off the paint. chemical stripper for the chrome areas and a drill with a wire brush for the rest. I'm about 85% the way there.

This bike didn't have the fade into chrome that Mondias seem to be known for. It was white or offwhite with red lined lugs. A chrome strip in the seat tube where it looks like the Mondia decal was resided, chrome head lugs, and half the stays. The entire head tube is polished chrome, so I think I will keep it like that? we'll see.

There are two cable stops along the top tube and one cable guide. While stripping the paint, I accidentally broke off the guide. It really didn't take much to knock it off. ah well. I'll file it flat and if needed, I put one of those little rubber tires on the cable.

All the races are smooth, and parts look functioning. pictures to come soon.
