Well the best is Dura Ace
But to avoid compatibility issues stick with one brand for the shifters/derailers. The crank doesn't matter so much.
As far as putting new components on an old bike I don't see anything wrong with that because the original components can always be put on later. The repaint is what kills it for me..
