There must be some people in the bike collecting biz who have more money than it's easy to imagine having. If one must have an absolute correct and nostalgic experience restoring old bikes than why not add this to list of must haves?
1) Wash your parts in that wonderful old leaded gasoline that still had an odor that smelled pretty good. 2) Listen to something in the background while you're overhauling a bike like - All in the Family re-runs or the news of Siro Agnew pleading Nolo Contendere. 3) Wear a pair of bell bottoms washed in phosphate rich detergent. (use lots of Canoe cologne and/or have optional patchouli incense sticks burning near by. 4) When you get the handlebar tape wrapped just so, you exclaim out loud - "Right on!". 5) Tie your hair back with a rubber band while you're working to keep it from falling into the headset and upsetting your ball bearing count. 6) No comment as to what you should be smoking while all of this is going on.
