Thank's guys, I'm glad somebody gets it.
This is an English hot rod, think Auston-Healy, not Camaro.
Got the headset issue resolved and it rides as good as it's gona' get.
It's been a long time since I've been on a drop bar bike and now I'm glad I went to recumbents for my long distance riding!
Still, it's fast and fun to ride, and a real strong hill climber. It really needs a narrow Brooks saddle, hope I can find one reasonable.
It's been pretty low buck so far, I'd like to keep it that way.
I'm calling it "semi-done" for now, still have to do something with the head badge.
Also needs a bit of polish yet.
