myself i'd rather have some beat original paint.
so spending 150 to have braze-ons replaced and then 200-400 or whatever it costs for a quality repaint is going to cause me to keep looking.
Good point. Brings up another question: If y'all were to come across a bike that was "brazed off", what would it have to be to justify a restoration?
