Looks good so far Dan, the clean up and polish really are going nicely. This really hit home when I saw what you are rebuilding/ rehabbing, must be something in the air causing “around town” stirrings. I’ll be interested to see the frame set cleaned and polished up, should be a great looking ride.

I agree with the Sun Tour components for your drive train. I went this route on the ‘71 Schwinn Super Sport I’m building right now. Kept the Ashtabula crank, and Schwinn rings with the correct protector. But, I am using Sun Tour derailleurs front and rear. Managed to find a front with the 1-1/8” dia. clamp band, using a VGT long cage on the rear.

Keep on updating as you proceed with the build, please!
