good suggestion, wrk101. Thank you.
I've built road bikes, but not in many years. The technology and design has significantly changed; learning about the new is for me a major part of the fun.

Or, I could add
Nashbar Carbon MTB fork that is disk ready, and install
A2Z DM-UNI on the rear
then keep my purple-blue Cannondale frame.

i am aware that many vintage bike restorers, like car restoration, obsess being OEM showroom and period correct. My renovated Porsche is more "outlaw" than showroom. I am open to many directions, and as I read and learn, will likely change opinion many times.
