A while back I started a thread about sentimental bikes. Well, this is the bike I was talking about in that thread. My pappaw used this bike to get to work and back, and around town, before he started driving sometime in his 30's. My dad restored it a while back for him and he used it once again to get around town before his health started degrading. I'm finally ready to get started on it, but I don't know which direction I want to go. Dad took the bike down to bare steel when he restored it, so sanding down to the original paint isn't an option. I would love to have some patina just as a symbol of the character my pappaw had, but I'm not certain how to pull that off. The paint that's on there now needs to go, it's chipping and scratched in several places.
