Awesome looking build. I bought one new in 86' and the bike is still solid but needs to be modernized. What do you estimate your cost for this rebuild? Any issues with the fitment of the new parts? Any info you can provide would be great. Thx

I probably spent close to 1k on this build doing all the work myself. Depending on how you want to build it up, it could be closer to 500.
The only fitment issue you should have is the rear frame spacing is 126mm and newer hubs are 130. But this is a steel frame so you can use Sheldon Brown's cold setting method (basically just slightly bending the stays).

I like what you've done with this! Looks like a great ride, and comfortable too!

This is one of the best neo-retro builds I have seen! Great job! I'd ride the hell out of this bike!
