I found some pedals in my junk and just rebuilt them.
I have found some parts. I still have to dig through my junk to find tubes and tires (up overhead somewhere in my rafter shelves). I might have old track bars. I have a vintage celluloid covered mustache bar that I could use if I can’t find the drop bars. Most of my bars are also overhead in the rafters. I built the wheels 2 1/2 years ago. They have been in storage since last summer when I built a wood set for the bike these were originally on.
Maybe I’ll look for some more parts tomorrow or the next day. I’m going to look at 1900-1920 bike photos on the net for ideas. The slider stem is probably too new. I haven’t decided on the stem yet, I have 3 more possibilities in my junk. The frame is hanging somewhere up in my attic. I might also use another frame that I would have to buy, I’m not sure about that either. So the frame, seat post and stem are unknown at this late stage. If this doesn’t just bolt together and all parts fit then I won’t finish as I procrastinated too long for that.
