I also plan to get the frameset powdercoated, either a bluish-gray or dark orange. I have to get the bike back from my parent's house but I can't wait to start the project and get back to riding steel!

I'm in the same boat. I have a 720 Multitrack from 1995 that I rarely use anymore. I'm thinking about putting a Jones h bar or some dirt drops on it and use it as a commuter/tourer.
