I gave it a bath and found a rubber bumper that fits. Now to find a piece that will work as a trim ring for the light.
In doing some more research I find that in 1990 the Glide Ride Company reproduced this design as the "Rocketeer". In looking at detail photos there were a number of differences in assembly, fabrication and size and shape of front wheel fenders. The repop was also void of the front light. They were produced in red and yellow, and maybe a Coca Cola version. There are a few on eBay. For a price, mine looks like a bargain now.

Pavilions Flea Market, spent $5 for the pair of wrenches. They were used as bicycle pocket wrenches. One has a tire/rim tool on end. Mossberg A-1 and A-3 markings.
Do an eBay search for "vintage bicycle wrench".
Prices vary widely.

Have to find some of them, the plastic ones don't hold up too well for me.
