Installed the used handlebar/brake levers and seat to the Bianchi -- Just putting the pieces on the bike as a placeholder...

I bought some Celeste Green bar tape for this bike.  Will install it as part of the reassembly process later...

Need to figure out a way to put some color back in the scuffed areas to make it look more presentable (doesn't have to be like new but just less obviously scuffed...).

At some point, I'll take the bike pretty much completely apart to clean all the components & lube as needed before reassembly.  I'll leave the paint on the bike as is, but maybe find some -paint and do a little bit of touch-up to just make the scratches and crapes less noticeable...

Manhattan Beach Pier -- Saturday, January 26, 2019 -- 75 degrees...

From the Glendale Toy Swap Meet -- Corgi Aston Martin DB4 (Near Mint) & Matchbox Models of Yesteryear Y-6 Bugatti Type 35 (Mint)

This is an old Corgi in really good condition & all original.  Interesting color too...

I have several of these but this is the nicest one I've ever acquired.  Pretty much "like new"
