I'm trying to decide what to do with my '83 Laserlite f/f that I bought back in August.  :-\

So far, all i've done to it is take it out of the box it was delivered in and put it in the shed with my other bikes. ::)
The main tubes are ok, but there is a fair amount of pitting and dulling and some blistering of the chrome, also the original decals are a bit fooked and the head tube decal is missing. :'(

The options for me are....

1) Spend about a year, doing it gradually inc a full rechrome so it doesn't skint me too much in one go?
2) Powder coat it for a fraction of the rechrome cost and get it built in a few months?
or
3) Keep it as a survivor and build it up with survivor parts?

What would you lot do??
