Thanks all, for the suggestions and photos. I agree wholeheartedly that these Grand Jubilés have a wonderful feel to them and are a joy to ride. I also love that French je ne sais quoi that they have about them in such surprising abundance.
I'm leaning toward keeping the original 27 inch Rigida wheels since from the photos I've seen they seem to work well with VO fenders. I have those nice VO classic looking front and rear racks sitting around unused, so that seems a good combination. In the mean time I'm just enjoying riding up and down the Platte River trail on her here in Denver and gazing at the lugwork and finish while enjoying a beer in the sun.
