This was a donor FD that I picked out the parts bin at Working Bikes Cooperative, specifically for the pinch bolt and plate that mine was missing. There are a couple of good threads on here about the Compe-V if you are interested.

Don,

The package arrived today, and it looks great! The cable retainer hardware (pinch bolt & plate) from mine should screw right in. Thank you (and the parts offer from USAZorro) again. One step closer to a working bike.

This past weekend I removed the freewheel gear cluster and cleaned and regreased the axle bearings, while replacing a broken drive side spoke. Fixed one partially siezed jocky wheel on the rear derailleur, and have the bottom bracket all apart for inspection & service. I even pryed off the dust caps from the pedals and serviced those bearings. I've really stretched by knowledge and skills with this project. Finally putting those Park tools thru their paces!
