Rccardr, I'll grab the drop bar levers if they are indeed the V-Brake kind. Tom is right, cantilever and center/sidepull brakes take regular road levers while V-Brakes are their own thing. PM me; can paypal.

TimmyT - some basic tektro linear pulls would be great -- need anything in trade? I can probably find some on a junk bike etc., but I may hit you up later. Silver would make sense for an '84 Trek, but I have some black hardware elsewhere and a black rear fender. Black V-Brakes might complete the build!
