Always good to get as many opinions as possible Paul - especially on such an unusual frame ;)
I really wouldn't re-finish it mate, it would be a crime in my opinion.
I'd rather buy you another cali to play with and buy this one off you just to preserve it mate - and that's the truth :daumenhoch:
But at the end of the day bud - it's yours to do what you want with ;)
Back on the topic of the dropouts, the only thing they even look close to out of the mongoose range are the mongoose "twofour" cruiser dropouts - similar angle and shape but 3 holes rather than 2 and without that slight "dip" in the top of the plate. :-\

Could be a custom frame specced for a factory rider, would be a shame to lose the original chrome on a unique frame like that.
James Nada:
Gotta agree with bobafett - that should be preserved.
I'm sure Mongoose did this sort of thing knowing that 25 years later people would be confused!
monkian:
I'd have to listen to these boys if I were you. It sounds like you've something potentially a bit special there.
I'm sure there's folk on here who could do wonders on the original chrome to bring it back to life :daumenhoch:
