Taipan:
It seem's survivor is the new nos  ;) personally I love a good survivor with all the parts it wore bitd whilst being thrashed around by us as kids  :daumenhoch:   so my take is if you have all the parts I'd clean things up and keep it that way especially if your gonna ride it aswell  :daumenhoch: but if your going to re-chrome or paint it then you might aswell go the whole hog and build it more of a show pony build,but we all see things differently? but I'll be interested to see which way you go regardless  :daumenhoch:

Picklez:
Strip, kill the rust, then refinish IMHO, but then I'm a tart.

Awesome frame btw, and I must be sad because the weld on the rear of that downtime gusset gets me going  :LolLolLolLol:

MartyC:
As much as I love a survivor that looks like it really needs some love; dechrome and rechrome would be the order of the day for me; well it would be if anyone actually did that well on the west coast of Oz!  They also came in colours too so maybe a white or powder blue would be an option after dechroming  :daumenhoch:

bodamus:
Callum first refusal please if you decide to move it on outbid me on that one :'(

Avro:
Yes, too far gone. I would get it re-chromed although I appreciate it is more expensive than paint.
