Wow, is that a rain measuring devise on the handlebars too? Well, it is Portland I guess.
Yeah bob, riding to work today it rained a 1/4"
Somehow this reminds me of those bloody Mary's they sell in Wisconsin, with the pretzel, the nachos, the meat, etc.

For the discerning Lake Oswegoian, it needs an e-wheel.
I think that's a thermometer, needs a rain gauge and cell phone holder.
Where's the camera/radar detection system?
Love the chainring bash guard.
Chrome pie plate, balances nicely with rear disc brake.
For $159, possibly worth it for the vintage accessories.

Nicely equipped!
That was a shop's dream -- the margin is in the add-ons, not the bike!

Actually, that's not that unusual for an "old" (I'm 66, I can say that
) persons bike from the period except the white rubber mud flaps and hub shiners are missing.

I have never seen so much awesome on one bike! Sure, it could use some streamers, hub shiners, and a second water bottle holder, but maybe the original owner didn't want to go overboard on this build 
Btw, anyone notice the trouser clip stored neatly around the seatstay attachment portion of the rear rack? At least, I think it's a trouser clip:
I think the reason a second mirror was not included is that, just looking at the symmetry of the handlebar array, any additional weight added to the drive side would result in a tendency to continuously veer right, towards the curb. Safety first!
