Thanks. Yes I'll keep the thread updated with progress. Not everything I'm buying now will stay on the build as I'm keen to keep the bike ride-able and upgrade when funds and opportunities arise.
The cranks look even better in the flesh. I was quite surprised. Much better than the more common pressed steel ones (this is cast).
Good choice derailleur. In my mind, I've always felt that it is probably the one from that era that looks really old timey but will work as well as a modern one. You'll have to let us know how it goes.
Cranks look lovely too.
