I found this 2 year old thread while trying to identify your bike in your 10-17-21 post in the "Where'd You Ride Today? (New & Improved)" thread. (I'd include a link, but I don't have enough posts to add one. ) This seems like a more appropriate place to say that your bike is beautiful.

Thanks,
dls and welcome to C&V! It's nice to see this thread again. As I said, some builds are never done, and a few things have changed since 2019. New dynamo front hub and lights, a Brooks Flyer saddle customized by
rhm, a spiffy Velo Orange Grand Cru crankset, and a beautiful chromed Silca Impero to replace the Zefal pump which I lost by leaving it on my car last fall in Vermont. Except for the dynamo and lights, I think everything I mentioned was purchased from other forum members in the Classic & Vintage Sales subforum. You'll find this to be a welcoming community.
