Thread dredge...
Ok, retro road crank suggestions. Has anyone got any ideas?
Should ideally be Shimano 9 or 10-speed compatible, polished silver, with a classic road look, like the slim, fluted stuff for example.
This is the best I've found so far but the crank arms themselves are a bit too modern-looking:

Do you reckon I could pair some vintage/NOS crank arms with modern chainrings (for shifting performance)?

^ ah yes, I meant to say I looked at those and wasn't overly keen on the slightly blingy vibe. But they are on the radar, thanks.

Andel also do a road version of their fluted pista cranks in a range of sizes + chainring options

edit IRD have branded them up as their Defiant road cranks in standard and compact and Soma online store sells them

cheaper on Ebay

Perfect. Rep is yours. Thank you very much.
I have a 2002 Tourmalet. Not the greatest frame but I've always liked the way it looks.
