The portage and the eclair are both definitely in the daily rotation ( rode the eclair today). If I had to ditch one of them it'd be a hard choice .
nice to see an all stock eclair. Mine came sans wheels , seatpost and crankset. It did have both front and rear racks. Btw, mine will fit 32mm tires with fenders with not much room to spare. Not sure how large with no fenders. That's with 700's which you can run with those cantis, though braking would be a lot better with period deore cantis or something with a little more adjustment. I'm still running the same ones you have though.
