Well, my Sturmey Acher is finally working. The rim is okay and a couple of spokes look bent but for the most part, I think is rideable.

Anyway, I have a feeling the powdercoater lost my Fender bridge and the parts that hold the chainguard. No ill feelings, just bumming.

It looks like this:

I think I can bend/contort the fender to fit it. Unless someone else has a suggestion or McGuyver I can try, I'll try it.

Or can I use these? I'm guessing I have to drill a hole in the fender:

Also, I think I can McGuyver these things to work on the chainguard.
I'll need these as well. What's the part on the left with the 2 screws on each end?

Those things are available aftermarket via J&B, IIRC.

EDIT: Oldroads has them: http://oldroads.com/bikepart.html

That part is for attaching the V-O chaincase; you don't need it for your hockey stick chainguard.

Thanks again skywriter.
Here's an update. Looks like the powdercoater was able to mail me my little pieces! Hurray!! I'm getting real close!
Just need an indicator chain but I *may* be able to get it to work for a little bit with the old one.

The future looks like I want to build new wheels for it. 80 for rims, 100 for spokes and nipples....
Economy is bad but I'll start saving now for some of these. I think I can actually ride this thing by the weekend (and take pictures for you guys!!!)
