Is that your bike? Does it have those wacky bars? If so, it doesn't matter which saddle you pick, but the swallow will look better once you get aesthetically consistent bars.
Nope but this one is:
I have all the parts but life has been getting in the way of me from actually rebuilding it having replaced it from duty. At the moment it's a table ornament to make all the little hipster boys and girls envious of what they don't/ can't have.
Forgot to mention, I also replaced the seat collar with a silver thomson to balance out the silver & black of the newer build and hopefully preserve the original small parts if I ever intend to rebuild it in stock heritage form.
