After ditching the Centaur groupset, I set off to the attic to see if it had something to offer for the bike. After sorting out all the parts that were up there, I ended up with no less than 9 more or less complete groupsets, including a really nice Shimano 600 tricolor 8 speed groupset.
The shifters were not functioning, but half a can of degreaser quickly fixed that. Aside from the cranks, all the parts are now in great shape and they look very nice on the frame. While I was at it I also changed the saddle for a Turbo, which in turn I changed for a Flite, but neither look the part.

I will put up some pictures tomorrow.
