The headlamp bulb is probably burnt out and easily replaced. The innards of lamps from that era were quite sturdy. If something else is broken/requires adjustment/brass contact requires cleaning, I have the same exact model and may be of assistance.

The tail lamp is original.
See my post here and look at the diagrams:

Also see Sheldon Brown's article for a catalog illustration of your rear lamp (scroll down about half way):

Replace the tail bulb with this one:

Don't change anything else, except maybe KoolStop brake pad inserts.

Phil Wood Tenacious Oil is highly recommended for oiling the hub, pedal, & bottom bracket oil ports.
