One small step . . .

... and that's it. Just one small step, but it is a good one. Dale found Campagnolo brake hoods in Italy and they look and fit great!

These are non-aero original style where the brake cables come out the top and loop down old school. 

The other day, I hung the rear changer on the frame and put the rear wheel in to make sure that the changer could reach the inner most cog on the 9-speed cassette. It does fine. 

I'm getting pretty excited about this project!
