That looks like a fun bike! Have you thought about any of the center pull brakes? The Weinmann/MAFAC/Compass/ReneHerse options?

I have an 85- so it's essentially the same bike- and I think that's a really big stretch- I'm running 35s with SKS fenders and it's tight. My guess is 38 tops.

I'm looking forward to your build!!!
