I had it powdercoated at Armourtex and put some incongruous decals on it. Oh, and they also removed the middle cable guide from the underside of the top tube 'cause it was bent up. My brother-in-law re-painted the head badge and it came up real nice.
I finished the build and it looked lovely and all that but being 5'11'', it was way too big for me.
Anyway, I stripped it and swapped it all over onto a great 70's Carlton frame I got from Hilary Stone.
It now looks like this:
Not sure how well it can be seen on the shitty photo but there's a small ding in the seat tube just above the bottle mount hole which I didn't discover until I had it stripped and repainted.
I'm not sure if this is OTT but I'd like £50 for it?
I'm based in Lewisham. I can arrange shipping if you are that way inclined.
EDIT: Measurements according to original listing.
25" Centre to Top
23" Top Tube Centre to Centre
Additional picture of the ding... apologies, these were taken on my phone.
