some of you guys might remember i took a refurb on a while ago "1965 roadbike" some tour -de france winner . well when i pick it up i seen all the chrome on it  :crazy2: . it looked to far gone i thought , so i gave jonathan a ring and asked if he would take the job on , he asked for some pictures and so i sent the stuff down . i think from memory i sent about 45-55 items including washer,s , nut, bolts and the such . now they were away about 3 weeks and i gets a message you owe me some money neil   :'(   ..... but NO the price i was well happy with , so he sent them back and i was thinking i bet they look shi!t as when i sent them down they were canny bad condition                    THANK YOU SO MUCH JONATHAN

Looking forward to see it completed, but am I the only spoilsport on here??

Not really impressed with this one:



These parts probably never have been show chromed even on day one, but can only see a lack of prep on this ?

Nearer to 45 years old  :daumenhoch:

I'm sure N2CUS got it for his 10th Birthday ;D  I do think Arnaud is entitled to his opinion on the prep issue but that derailleur was fit for the bin so it's pretty good considering.

Looking forward to seeing this built :daumenhoch:

please don't get me wrong Jonathan's work is some of the best I've ever seen... :smitten:

Just think the guy's entitled to he opinion.

I know how hard it is to prep for chrome and I personal think he's done a very good job :daumenhoch:

Me too.  :daumenhoch:

And I know how much effort Jono puts into each and every piece he does, and to say that he has done a lack of prep work is just plain silliness, perhaps a a reflection as to how clued up ones 'opinion' is.  :D

1. WTF is Jonathon ???
2. Chevron build some of the best resto's on here.
3. Not everyone has to blow, Neil is cracking and a bonus for this site, but am sure he dont mind the odd opinion or two
4. attaking ppl because they dont agree with you is not "for the common good" even if he is French  :LolLolLolLol:
