Bikes: they change so much I'm tired of updating this

yeah, im not sure if its a track bike or not, dont really care i was just trying to find a maker. with no head badge and thousands of bike makers back then, i will probably never know. i will probably try to find something close so i can find a headbadge for it. so far the only thing i have done is what i like to call preservation. bearings and cups cleaned and greased and major rust taken car of. most of it was superficial surface rust, very little pitting.the main reason why im doing a full restoration is the rear ''brake bridge'' is gone. so i plan on putting another one in. i dont plan on doing anything until all missing period correct parts are found. i have a couple other restoration projects in line so this one can wait. i am going to have everything nickel plated and the frame repainted. the wood rims are in great shape so i will refinish them and lace new spokes to them.thanks for all the info.
