looks really complete.

I'm looking for the same thing in an Eldo project.  Patina on the outside, restored on the inside

Well yes................ but I love the headlight bling, those sexy bags with the gratuitous bumpers, and that wonderful Art Nouveau rear mudguard protector.  Lovely.  Keep her!
