And, yes I did fix the saddle/post issue - it drove me nuts to look at it.

I've seen tri-bikes use a forward-biased seatpost arrangement, too. I guess if it's comfortable, we'll go with what works (I have been known to use a Flite Evolution, which looks like the most UNcomfortable saddle on the planet, but in reality is anything but!).
Thanks for posting those pics - I really like that bike.

My first post here 
A 1968 Shwinn Varsity I just finished, not one I'd keep as a rider but this one cleaned up pretty well.
