Help! Trying to remove dropout on old Chinelli
My dad bought a Chinelli bike back in the 1970s while traveling in Italy from the factory he said. Its nice and all but it is steel. I thought it would be a great tribute taking it and stripping off the old components and turning it into a sweet fixie. So far I have removed the old Clampaggnol stuff and have taken sandpaper to get the old paint off and ready for a flourecent powdercoat. The paint wasn't really in good shape anyway and someone signed their name on it.
In any case, I found some sweet Trek stickers on eBay and am going to use those. That way it looks kewl and modern. Now I want to find a way to take off the rear dropout. I used a wrench but that only bent it. What is the best way to remove this unneeded item?
Here is the old bike pre-update and works in progress. I will post pixs of the bike as it gets cooler.
Any help is truely appreciated.
