Picked this bike up a couple of weeks ago locally....

I tore the entire bike down and carefully cleaned and polished everything. I repacked all of the bearings and replaced the brake cables and brake pads. The pedals were mismatched Unions and the original kickstand was in bad shape too. Forum member rfeagleye sold me the Hunt Wilde grip tape and I bought the chrome Schwinn end caps on Ebay.

Other than the things mentioned above the bike is 100% original right down to the tires. Unfortunately someone tore off the reflector tab under the seat otherwise I would have added the correct reflector. About the only thing I'd like to add is a set of blue Hunt Wilde flag valve caps and maybe some brake lever covers.

Here are a few picks of the end results...

Wow, beautiful work 8) ....you've brought it back to its "dream bike" status.
 
Not quite a proper fix, but you could always jbweld a small bracket on the seat pan for the reflector.
