It's so purdy! Nice job DebW.
Thanks for the update and the picture. It's been interesting to follow the restoration.

I'd been wondering about your progress. Congrats on getting it finished and getting a beautiful old bike back on the road.
I'd rather be swimming...biking...running...and eating cheesecake...

Oh, it's gorgeous!
And I love the dynamo light. Does it have a little red one for the back?

I haven't gotten the dynamo light to work. It does generate current, so the problem may be in the lighting unit circuit (there's an A to D converter there).
Oil is good, grease is better.
