Thank you,,,, for thanking me !!
Uh-oh. Repainting will hurt the " original value " of it, but since it is already done, nothing to do now, except finish to your desires. Value of these old bikes seem to mainly be according to your area, because of supply & demand. Around here, a pretty nice vintage, original Raleigh 3 spd will bring $150 up. 10 spds, etc, $200 up. Sounds like the local guy is familiar with those. Did you see the #'s on the hub & figure out the date of it & what model is it ??
