hey guys...I have this vintage saddle I want to use on a build but the seat post bracket is worn out and the bolt is stretched...anybody know a place I can get a replacement bracket or have some other ideas on how I can fix this problem...thx
 
You can use a modern 7/8” bracket with a shim. Try a 7/8” OD W/5/8” ID “spacer” from hardware store to use a modern clamp on 5/8” seatpost. I’ve also used copper pipe to make a shim.

Bike shop, they can order one from J & B importers
 
Have you tried recutting the serrations with a jeweler's file?—might bring it back to life for a little while.
