Opinions: If this doesn't work on the road, Do I put a NOS Campy Grand Tourismo on it? Or do a go for a long cage adaptor on a NR/SR? Or do I see if I can find a Rally RD?

Man that is cool, very nice!

No GT, those in general are scrap metal, nostalgia or not.

Long cage or Rally is the ticket, and yes they come with their own special baggage but can work very well with the right setup.
