Beauty.
I am working on a similar setup with a different frameset and older Campagnolo Record Pista though.
I'm still not sure if I will use the toestraps with or without the plastic knobs at the end.
I have them and I know it's easy to grab them.
But as I remember from long time ago, the clicking noise while riding can be irritating. And when you remove the knobs, ugly holes are left.
What did make you to use the knobs ?
What bar tape are you going to use?
I will start with Tressostar black cloth. Perhaps will shellec.
Other options are Benotto cello tape or Bike Ribbon.
What chain are you going to use?
I may start with a 3/32" because I have a Super Record ring in 3/32" and both sizes sprockets.
I have a nice Sedis Pro, but unfortunately it's too short.
Would be nice to have an Italian, but it's hard to get a (silver) Regina (1/8" or 3/32") even another Italian.
I'll start with a SRAM PC 870 (890 is too expensive).
What do you think is Italian, age correct and available?
