Thanks Rick. I had planned on having the whole bike painted hunter green with pin stripes to match the Villiers decals but the pin stripes were either too gold or too copper color. A lesson I've learned from mixing and matching sport coats and pants (since I'm too cheap to buy a suit!) is that matching colors from different sources is nearly impossible so it's best to go with a complementary color. I decided on burgundy pin stripes. However, a green bike with (basically) red pin stripes and my beard and it's a Christmas themed motorbike. Not what I'm looking for so a black frame it is. With all the JB Weld on the welds to smooth them out a bit the flat black engine paint with gloss over coat looks almost like a casting. I'm liking it. Not even close to perfect but I'm happy! Painting the rear wheel and sheeve tonight.
