My Peugeot PY10 has arrived!!

So after a while of waiting my Peugeot PY10 finally arrived.
I'm very happy with it but need to find some parts to finish it properly.
Some of the parts had been replaced over the years.

It has the gold Simplex LJ Super front and rear derailleurs and gold Mafac brakes.
I have managed to find the gold levers on Ebay and so those parts are complete.

It has the Philippe Atax professional handle bars but not the original stem.
The wheels aren't original and neither are the seat post or saddle.

At the moment it has an aero seatpost and i have a choice of saddles to put on there.
I think i'm going to go with a brown Cinelli unicator because it's a nice saddle and looks similar to the ideale 2000 models.

As for the wheels i might keep the more modern ones on there or a pair of Nomandy luxe competition with clincher rims or Campagnolo and tubulars , or i might have some normandy and tubular wheels somewhere.

The crank set is a more modern Stronglight escape and i have a Stronglight 49D that could go on there even though that is the wrong version for the bike! But to be honest i quite like the Escape!

What do you guys think about trying to keep everything original as opposed to mostly original.

Cheers
