Lush, nicely put together. Did you need to cold set rear to accommodate new wheels?

Thanks for your positive comment.
Yes, Groody Bros shop here in KCK did the cold set in addition to adding rear brake bosses on top tube, adding bottle cage inserts and did the beautiful powder coating and lug detailing. I have a number of other steel framed classics they have done for me.
When almost finished with this project I came across an auction listing for a 1953 Stella that was outfitted almost exactly like this. The 650b rims.195 tires, the exact same racks.
I was surprised how close to original I had spec'd this bike without prior knowledge.
