NIce.
Your Gillott will be great.
Is it all lug-less?
Is that gearing called Half-step?
I have a 1952 'Connoisseur' (spearpoint lugs with windows) I've been collecting parts for for an age.
It has Simplex Juy 51 rear (similar to yours which I think is a 'Tour de France' model) and Simplex Juy 53 front which is a very early cable operated mech.
Maybe I'll get it finished for next years L'Eroica.
