Thanks,
Well, I did by a 1930's simplex derailleur in good condition for it but for now I'd like to hook up the Shimano that's on it. I was hoping to find some instructions about setting it up and adjusting it. Also what do I need to fit for the front sprockets as there is nothing on the bike for making any gear changes up front?
I have re-plated the Jeay brakes and bought new blocks for them. The bike will be off for powdercoating in a few weeks when I get back to work on it. (the bike is in Scotland, I'm in California so I only get to work on it a couple of times a year).
Here's a before and after of the brakes.
