Thank you Narhay. Was definitely an exercise in patience.

Dynamo hubs? Which ones?
Which Groupset did you go with? Kind of looks like a Rally RD?
Thank you.
The dynamo is a Shmidt SON28, which has since been redesigned since purchasing and having the wheels built, but I like the chunky look of this previous one.
The rear derailleur is a Rally, found NOS. I still have the Huret Ti that was original and is in good shape, but I didn't like having to unbolt it every time I got a flat tire. I'd love to find another before it's too late, just for backup. The front is a Campy Racing Triple crank and front derailleur that I found on ebay also as NOS, and a friend of mine with a Metal shop polished the crank to a mirror finish. I swapped the chainrings with TA's with a tooth count that was more appropriate for the mountains near me.
Much better than that Biopace crank that I suckered myself into trying back in 1986 in the 'before' photo
