Feast your eyes on this tasty centurion! Tange tubing . . . Shimano 600 . . . DURA ACE!!! Ah, but don't look too close or ye might not like what you see!

Okay, so I rebuilt the centurion that I posted about in this thread:

I was able to remove the nail polish with a light paint stripper, but it left exposed metal (from previous scrapes, not the paint stripper). Otherwise, I'm pretty happy with it for paying a total of $80 (that's including the original price of bike), mostly on new bar tape, a chain and some fenders. What do you think, was it worth it or should I have left well enough alone?
