Paint restoration in Boston?

I just bought what I think is a Monark Silver King (26"). It's got a really cool 3/4 orange 1/4 white spiked painted job. The forks are thin little blades and most of the paint has come off. I'm not sure I want it totally repainted, I like the patina. I'm thinking maybe a wet sand and clear coat for the frame and some new paint for the forks.

Anyone know a reasonably affordable place that might do such a thing?
