Ok so finally I've had some progress!
Wheels arrived from V-Sprint a couple of weeks back (Great service and price, thanks Varno). Miche Primato hubs on silver Omega Mach 1s. Fitted with some Schwalbe Luganos with beige sidewall:
I tidied up the frame a bit - removed some rust and touched up the paint. It looks ok from a distance, not too great up close mind!. Headset was fitted at Brixton Cycles. It's an FSA Duron (about £30 from Planet X) - design looked pretty much identical to a Chris King to me:
Stronglight cranks and BB bought on the forum for cheaps, never seen a chain so basically new.
Next up, Soma Highway 1 bars - the only silver 26mm bars available in a compact shape apart from some expensive Nitto ones. And a Zenith stem.
I'd been gathering the above parts for the last few weeks, and on Saturday, this arrived...
And this was the result. Really happy with this, just need to get a black saddle for it:
