Needs

The list of things I need to finish up are below. If anybody can give insight or has a good source, I'd appreciate it very much.
A) missing one Campagnolo pedal cap. The other has raised letter "Campagnolo Patent"
B) chain is a bit worn, looking for information on what chain would be most like the original
C) needs original brake pad holders. Presently it has some more modern looking brake pads. I have several of the NOS Campy brake blocks in black, but no holders. If anybody would like to trade a set of holders for a set of four Campy brake blocks, that would be great.
D) the tubular rims are mismatched. Front is labeled Mavic Championatt du Monde and rear is labeled Schwinn approved. Hubs are both high flange Campy, so I'm guessing the front rim was replaced with the Mavic sometime in its life.
E) Right brake lever has some deep scratches, more than I can polish out. It is Campy with no holes in lever.
F) Has Alredo Binda toe straps but the leather is shot.

So that's the list now. I may be overdoing it in my quest, but I have lusted "in my heart" for a nice Paramount like this since the Carter administration!

Thanks very much for any input. Jeff
