And I would be interested in your spare Shimano cups if they are in good condition. From what I can tell, my spindle measures 37.5mm on the left side, 52 in the middle, and 32 on the right.

Thanks everyone! : )
The last time I was at CCC they had a bin of new Specialized-brand BB spindles. It might take some digging, but that's the fun part of "This Old Bike".
