Others have mentioned OCB in Vancouver. I'd already been told about them by a certain local who'd used them to fix up her bike (a desire for which I'd like to take no small amount of credit for spawning) so I've been to see them. Second hand parts galore. They're just around the corner so I'm going to head over there today to see what they have in terms of parts for this build. You can rent a work stand and have full use of their tools/grease/whatever for a cheap flat rate, so I'd imagine that most of the build will take shape there.
I've also signed up to volunteer there during my time in BC so I may well talk more about this as I go.
