Your bike looks spectacular! Chrome bikes in general just dominate. Chrome Voyageurs have a very special look to them- whether it's the Schwinn block logo or whatever it is- It's attractive.
Are you planning on a front bag, like an Acorn or Berthoud? Those would look perfectly at home on that bike.
John Zeni is a great guy and a hell of a mechanic/restorer. I don't know how many times I've said this- he really "gets" bicycles. He understands how to make your bike appeal to you on so many levels, as a functional rider, as a smooth running machine and as a beautiful object. He did the same thing to my Trek 720 touring bike, and as with every bike I see on his blog, he's made your bike beautiful and I'll lay dollars to doughnuts that it shifts and moves and rolls flawlessly.
Congratulations and thanks for sharing!
