A little progress is made with each passing day.
Today I received this bike's "special part" from [MENTION=175671]shnibop[/MENTION]: curved Campy Record gear levers. I traded a just-as-rare pair of curved gear levers for these.
Received this afternoon and painted/installed about 30 minutes ago:
Friday I get the rear triangle straightened away, then finish cabling up the brakes and derailleurs that evening with the hopes that the following day I have a fun and uneventful Gorge test ride.
