Thanks, I appreciate it.

The build in those photos actually uses a 1" threadless fork, so there is no adaptor. There is a 1/8" shim so that I can use more of my modern stems. The seller included them with the frameset, so figured I'd try the setup out for a few miles.

On the topic of 1" quill to 1" threadless converters, I've had great luck with the Nitto MTC-01:




This is a pic I took while assembling the first time. I got the MTC-01 after finding a Cinelli Alter stem at a swap meet. It turns out, finding the 1" quill to threadless converter was harder than finding the Alter stem. Cinelli made some, but they're hard to find. Ben's Cycle in Milwaukee had this Nitto version for sale.

Here's a pic of it with the 1" threadless Alter stem:




Thanks for looking and best of luck with your build
